Virus and Spyware Removal Guides, uninstall instructions

What is SmartApp?

SmartApp is an updated variant of an adware-type application called PQwick. This app usually infiltrates systems without users’ permission. In addition, SmartApp delivers intrusive advertisements and gathers various information. Therefore, as with PQwick, SmartApp is also categorized as adware and a potentially unwanted application (PUA).

What is Search.dramofog.com?

search.dramofog.com is a fake search engine (also known as searchv.dramofog.com) and is very similar to search.pogypog.com, search.yadbazelet.com, searchv.dooryov.com, and many other search engines of this type.

Note that search.dramofog.com is presented as legitimate - developers promote it as being useful, offering faster searches, and more accurate search results, etc. They promote it using rogue downloaders/installers that change browser settings. Furthermore, this fake search engine gathers various information relating to users' browsing habits.

What is search.hloginnow.net?

search.hloginnow.net is a fake search engine that is very similar to search.hmylocalclassifieds.co, defendsearch.com, resultsinquire.com, and many others of this type. The site may seem legitimate, since it shares similarities with popular search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing, and so on.

In fact, search.hloginnow.net is promoted using a browser hijacker called Login Now. This application supposedly provides users with easy access to email accounts. Unfortunately, this app is categorized as potentially unwanted app (PUA). Typically, users do not install these apps intentionally.

Furthermore, Login Now and other PUAs gather data and modify infiltrated browser settings.

What kind of malware is KadrBot?

KadrBot (more specifically, Win32:KadrBot) is the name of a threat detected by various anti-virus suites. This threat is categorized as a trojan and hides deep within the system.

These viruses typically infiltrate computers without users' permission and their presence can lead to various issues, since trojans are often used to proliferate other viruses and manage systems remotely (criminals use them as remote access tools).

What is Shadi?

Shadi is a malicious program that was discovered by Michael Gillespie. It is categorized as ransomware-type program. Typically, cyber criminals who develop these computer infections use them to encrypt data stored on victims' systems and make ransom demands.

In this particular case, a ransom message can be found in the "Readme.txt" file. When encrypted, files become unusable. Ransomware-type programs usually rename encrypted files by adding a new (additional) extension. Shadi adds the ".shadi" extension. For example, "1.jpg" becomes "1.jpg.shadi".

What is Cammora?

First discovered by malware security researcher, Michael Gillespie, Cammora is a new variant of high-risk ransomware called Garrantydecrypt.

Once infiltrated, Cammora encrypts most stored data and appends filenames with the ".cammora" extension (e.g., "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.cammora"). After successful encryption, Cammora generates a text file ("#RECOVERY_FILES#.txt") and places a copy in every existing folder. This file contains a ransom-demand message.

What is chromext.club?

chromext.club is virtually identical to botkano.info, verifycaptcha.com, adoptimismyto.club, and many other rogue websites. People usually visit this site unintentionally - they are redirected by installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) or intrusive advertisements displayed on other untrustworthy websites.

When visited, chromext.club (and other rogue websites of this type) cause redirects to other dubious web pages. PUAs often deliver advertisements and collect user-system information.

What is NrPro?

NrPro is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA) and adware. This app infiltrates computers without users' permission, gathers various information relating to browsing activity, and displays intrusive advertisements.

What is omumultation.club?

omumultation.club is categorized as a rogue website. Once visited, it redirects visitors to other dubious sites or displays dubious content. There are many similar websites including shaimsaijels.com, mobnootiffy.com, and pecul1ar.com - these are just some examples.

People usually end up visiting omumultation.club due to potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on their systems. I.e., few people visit this website intentionally. Furthermore, these apps are installed inadvertently without users' knowledge. Note that omumultation.club gathers various data and delivers intrusive ads.

What is chardlygenerald.info?

There are many rogue websites on the internet, including chardlygenerald.info, which is very similar to others of this type such as shaimsaijels.com, adoptimismyto.club, and mobnootiffy.com. Few people visit this intentionally - they are usually redirected to it by potentially unwanted apps (PUAs).

These apps force users to visit dubious websites such as chardlygenerald.info, feed them with intrusive advertisements, and gather various data. Users often install PUAs accidentally or inadvertently.
