DjvuApp (also known as WniDjView) is an open-source application that allows users to view the DjVu file format. This app is legitimate and useful, however, cyber criminals inject DjvuApp's source code with malicious scripts.
Therefore, some variants of this application are categorized as adware and potentially unwanted programs (PUPs). The main reasons for these negative associations are: 1) stealth installation without users' consent; 2) tracking of web browsing activity, and; 3) display of intrusive advertisements.

What is LockCrypt?
LockCrypt is a ransomware-type virus discovered by malware security researcher, xXToffeeXx. Once infiltrated, LockCrypt encrypts various files and renames them using the "[random_characters]=ID=[random_characters].lock" pattern.
For instance, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "CjBKBVcdVRk+AkkLPEQhNGpJPgkeO35TKBt0IUNSSQIzLnxgP04xRFEnewBTPCAEJ0BqA19DPjI= ID BM83S37H145HNUbT.lock".
LockCrypt then opens a pop-up window and creates a text file ("ReadMe.txt"), placing it on the desktop. Updated variants of this ransomware use .mich, .1btc or .1BTC extensions for encrypted files.
What kind of malware is Scarab?
Discovered by malware security researcher, Michael Gillespie, Scarab is a ransomware-type virus that stealthily infiltrates systems and encrypts various data. During encryption, Scarab appends filenames with the ".[resque@plague.desi].scarab" extension.
For instance, "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.[resque@plague.desi].scarab". Updated variants of this ransomware append: .inchin, .gold, .crabs. .dom, .rsalive, .btchelp@xmpp.jp, .{Help557@cock.li}.exe, .o$l, .alilibat, .les#, .Oops, .Navi, .[zoro4747@gmx.de].zoro, .kes$, .vally, .croc, .CRABSLKT, .burn, .fuchsia, .tokog, .crypt000, .[mrpeterson@cock.li].GFS, .suffer, .[crab2727@gmx.de].gdcb, .[decrypt2019@gmx.de].crypt2019, .X3, .nosafe, .GEFEST, .crash, .RAP, .[Traher@Dr.Com], .zzzzzzzz, .[[crab1917@gmx.de]].krab. .aztecdecrypt@protonmail.com, .online24files@airmail.cc, .stevenseagal@airmail.cc, .CRYPTO, .Enter, .fast, .key, .supportfiless24@protonmail.ch, .wewillhelp@airmail.cc, .yourhope@airmail.cc, .DD, .helpersmasters@airmail.cc, .[crab7765@gmx.de].crab, .ERROR, .firmabilgileri, .onlinesupport, .skype, .hitler, .mammon, .bruuuuz@yahoo.com, .glutton, .danger, .rent, .CYBERGOD, .anonimus.mr@yahoo.com, .BARRACUDA, .sdk, .ukrain, .bin2, .[firmabilgileri@bk.ru], .BD.Recovery, .[Filesreturn247@gmx.de].lock, .Recovery, .[mrbin775@gmx.de].bin, .dan@cock.email, .bomber, .fastsupport@xmpp.jp, .fastrecovery@xmpp.jp, .oneway, .infovip@airmail.cc, .osk, .walker, .locked, .please, [Help-Mails@Ya.Ru].Scorpio, .xmail@cock.li, .macc.edont@protonmail.com .[suupport@protonmail.com].scarab, .worcservice@protonmail.ch, .cashdashsentme@protonmail.com, .(hupstore@keemail.me) or .one extensions to encrypted files.
Other variants of this ransomware add .[unlocking.guarantee@aol.com] extension to encrypted files. Following successful encryption, the virus creates and automatically opens a text file ("IF YOU WANT TO GET ALL YOUR FILES BACK, PLEASE READ THIS.TXT"), and then places it on the desktop.
Since April, 2018 Scarab ransomware started using .decrypts@airmail.cc extension for encrypted files (for example 1.jpg after encryption would appear as VhyC=mMdD31qs4.decrypts@airmail.cc).
Other variants use .red and .fastrecovery@airmail.cc extension for encrypted files. Ransom demanding message is now presented in "HOW TO RECOVER ENCRYPTED FILES - decrypts@airmail.cc.TXT" file.
