David Ransomware

Ransomware infections are threats developed by cyber criminals for money extortion. David Ransomware is one of the newest ransomware infections released. It locks personal files on users’ computers like its predecessor Velso Ransomware. Then, it drops a ransom note in the .txt format. Users are told that they need “to buy the special software,” but, surprisingly, its price is not indicated in the ransom note, which shows that cyber criminals want users to contact them. If you are curious about the price, you can write an email to them if you want to, but you should keep in mind that sending money to malicious software developers is never a good idea even if it turns out that the price is low. Our piece of advice for those users who have encountered David Ransomware would be to delete this infection fully as soon as possible. By deleting it, you will make sure it cannot start working again. Luckily, this infection is quite simple malware, so its removal should not be very problematic. It should be noted that this malicious application must be deleted from the system no matter if you pay money for the decryption tool or not. Read more »

Search.hgetsports.net

Search.hgetsports.net appears to be one of the Polarity Technologies Ltd browser hijackers. What’s more, our researchers at Anti-spyware-101.com think it might be a clone of another recently reviewed hijacker called Search.getsports.co since the titles are almost identical and the threats look more or less the same. From our experience with such search engines, we can say there might be a chance Search.hgetsports.net could show unreliable advertising content from different third parties to generate advertising revenue. The bad news is while the program’s developers might be receiving payments for each user’s click, the user could put his system or privacy at risk by clicking it. If you keep reading our text, you will learn more about the browser hijacker and why we do not advise leaving it unattended. Should you decide to remove it; keep it in mind the manual deletion instructions available at the end of the article are here to help you erase it faster. Read more »

iSportTV Search Plus Extension

Have you downloaded iSportTV Search Plus Extension because you believed that this tool could help you find sports-related content?

Search.dsearchm3f2.com

Find Forms Fast is promoted as software that helps users to access “government forms,” but it should not be installed. If you do that, Search.dsearchm3f2.com will become your homepage. As a consequence, you will see it each time you launch your web browser. We cannot call it a browser hijacker, but the fact that it sets a new URL as a homepage the second it is installed on users’ computers is one of the reasons it has been categorized as a potentially unwanted program. Researchers working at anti-spyware-101.com have quickly realized that this search tool is not one of those legitimate search providers because it shares similarities with older search providers developed by Polarity Technologies Ltd., for instance, Search.searchlttrn.com and Search.hfreeforms.co. If you use it to perform web searches every day, it might even expose you to potential threats, and, on top of that, you might experience privacy-related problems. If you need more information about it, continue reading this report. Read more »
