Led-search2016.com could be the next questionable search engine that could appear in your most popular browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer. This worthless search engine does not seem to work at present, but our malware researchers at anti-spyware-101.com say that it could pose a threat in the near future. In fact, it may already cause system security-related problems for you as it can come on board with a company of malware infections. It is quite likely that your system is already under attack on several fronts. If you want to restore security and order on your computer, you will have to do more than remove Led-search2016.com alone. Our researchers suggest that you use a reliable online malware scanner to detect all potentially unreliable programs and malware infections so that you can step up and clean your system once and for all. Leaving even one single program on board that could be the source of potential risk would be a mistake and the price could be more infections before long or even an abnormally operating system.

Trojan.SlayerRAT

Trojan.SlayerRAT

Trojan.SlayerRAT is known to be a dangerous computer infection that usually finds ways to enter computers without permission. People might not know for a long time that they have malicious software installed on their systems because Trojan infections have extraordinary camouflaging skills; however, if your security tool ever detects a threat with this name, you should not ignore that since Trojan.SlayerRAT is a serious computer threat that can cause many problems if a user lets it stay. Judging from the information we have found on its official website (yes, unlike other Trojan infections, it has an official web page), this harmful infection was released in 2015 by a group of people living in Tunisia. Even though it has an official source, specialists are sure that it enters computers secretly in most cases. Users have to remove Trojan.SlayerRAT from their computers not matter how it has appeared on their systems if they wish to be safe. The removal of this infection will not be very easy since it does not have an uninstaller. Of course, our researchers still know how to make it gone, and they are going to share their knowledge with you in the last paragraph. Read more »
