Identical to medialink.mobi, leblonmedia.com, ads.dlvr.live, and many others, slimcdn.com is another rogue website that redirects visitors to other dubious/untrustworthy sites.
Most users to do not visit slimcdn.com intentionally - they are redirected to it by potentially unwanted programs (PUPs). Typically, PUPs are installed without users' consent, deliver intrusive ads, collect information, and affect computer performance.
What is Princess Evolution?
Princess Evolution is an updated version of high-risk ransomware called Princess. Developers proliferate this virus by using the RIG Exploit Kit. Once infiltrated, Princess Evolution immediately encrypts most stored files, thereby making them unusable.
In addition, it generates a unique string (e.g, ".RcK1") and appends it to the name of each compromised file (for instance, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to "sample.jpg.RcK1").
Once data is encrypted, Princess Evolution generates two files ("^_READ_TO_RE5T0RE_[random_string].txt" and "^_READ_TO_RE5T0RE_[random_string].html"), placing copies of each in all existing folders.
What is Porn Scrubber?
Created by the developers of Advanced Mac Cleaner and Mac Mechanic, Porn Scrubber is a dubious application that supposedly helps users to remove traces of all visited porn websites.
The app is very similar to Mac Auto Fixer. Initially, Porn Scrubber may seem legitimate and useful, however, developers proliferate this potentially unwanted application (PUA) using a deceptive marketing method called "bundling". Therefore, Porn Scrubber often infiltrates systems without users’ permission.
What is FedEx Tracking Email Virus?
Similar to eFax Email Virus, "FedEx Tracking Email Virus" is a spam email campaign used to proliferate a high-risk trojan called Hancitor. Research shows that developers send thousands of deceptive emails that encourage users to open attached MS Office documents. Once opened, the attachments stealthily download and install the Hancitor trojan.
What is searchadministrator.com?
Search Administrator is a deceptive app that supposedly enhances the browsing experience by optimizing search results. This functionality may seem legitimate and useful, however, Search Administrator is categorized as a potentially unwanted program (PUP) and a browser hijacker.

What is Cmb Dharma?
Cmb Dharma is another variant of a high-risk ransomware infection called Dharma. Immediately after infiltration, Cmb Dharma encrypts most stored files, thus making them unusable. During the process, Cmb Dharma appends each filename with the ".id-[victim's_ID].[paymentbtc@firemail.cc].cmb" extension.
For instance, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "sample.jpg.id-1E857D00.[paymentbtc@firemail.cc].cmb". Once data is encrypted, Cmb Dharma opens a pop-up window and creates a text file ("FILES ENCRYPTED.txt"), placing a copy in every existing folder.
