FlyBox Ransomware might need an invitation to slither into your operating system. Of course, it conceals itself first to ensure that you are not able to identify a security threat immediately. The infection can be concealed as a document file, and it could be sent to you via email or perhaps even social media platforms. The message accompanying the attachment should intrigue you and make you want to click it. The threat is unlikely to execute immediately, and you might have to click other buttons or accept certain demands first. For example, you might be asked to enable macros. If you do that, the infection executes silently. Fake updates and stealthy bundled downloaders could be employed as well. In any case, the infection is meant to trick you, and if it is successful, your files might be corrupted irreversibly. Should you remove FlyBox Ransomware to recover the files? This malware must be deleted, but do not expect for the files to be fully restored with this action. Read more »

Eknkfwovyzb Ransomware
If you run Windows, you have to watch out for Eknkfwovyzb Ransomware. This ransomware was created to encrypt your personal files, and let us assure you that it can encrypt pretty much all of your personal files. Once that is done, the “.eknkfwovyzb” extension is appended to them, and that is how you can assess the damages done. Unfortunately, fixing these damages is easier said than done.

ConverterSearchHD
If you have downloaded IStreamSearch recently, you should be able to just remove this potentially unwanted program (PUP) and forget about it. However, if it has been around for a while now, it is possible that you have already interacted with the search tool introduced by it, and that could cause different kinds of issues. Our Anti-Spyware-101.com experts have recently analyzed this suspicious extension in an internal lab, and we have a few tidbits of information that should help you understand and evaluate it better. It is important to note that this PUP is not unique. In fact, it has an uncountable number of clones, some of which include MovieSearches, ConverterSearchNow, NewVideoSearch, and AllRadioSearch. We always analyze and review all of them separately, but because they are clones, the same information and tips apply in every case.

Wannacry666 Ransomware
Receiving the Wannacry666 Ransomware could cause many problems as the malware could encrypt files that you might be unable to replace, such as photos, important documents, videos, etc. Files that become encrypted can be restored, as instead of being damaged, they get locked. However, it is vital to have a unique decryption key and a decryptor to undo the encryption. As you can probably imagine, both of these decryption tools are not easy to come by. In fact, the only ones who may have them could be the malicious application’s developers who offer them only to those who pay a ransom. We advise not to make any rash decisions because paying the ransom does not guarantee that you will get the needed decryption means. If you want to know why and learn more details about this threat, you should read the rest of this article. At the end of the text, you can also find our removal instructions that show how users might be able to erase Wannacry666 Ransomware manually. Read more »
