Josephnull Ransomware is an infection that you are unlikely to notice upon entrance but are bound to face once the attackers want that. The infection works in several stages. First, it has to invade your operating system, and it might exploit existing RDP vulnerabilities, spam emails, or unreliable downloaders for that. If the system is not protected appropriately, the infection might be able to slither in without anyone’s notice. After that, it moves on to the second stage of the attack, during which it drops files, encrypts your personal files, and also deletes shadow volume copies. Finally, it reveals itself with the help of ransom note files, at which point it blatantly demands money. Hopefully, you have not been victimized by this malware yet, but if you have, you want to remove Josephnull Ransomware as soon as possible. That might not save your files, but your system will automatically become safer. We also share important tips that, hopefully, will help you keep your files and your operating system safe against ransomware in the future. Read more »
Check-you-robot.site
Have you ever had to enter a CAPTCHA to access a certain website? Maybe they said that they need to check whether you’re not a robot?

AllMoviesSearch
If you expected AllMoviesSearch to help you find or even watch movies, you have to be disappointed by this extension after installing it. It has nothing to do with movies specifically, and all it can offer is a search engine that you can use to find anything, including information about movies. The problem with the search tool offered by this PUP (potentially unwanted program) is that it cannot be trusted. Our Anti-Spyware-101.com research team has analyzed this PUP thoroughly, and we know for a fact that it exploits Yahoo Search to show modified search results. Therefore, the user might think that they are using Yahoo, when, in reality, they are browsing through the results selected by the PUP.

Lbenjamiemai.info
As far as adware servers go, Lbenjamiemai.info is pretty standard in its operations. When people online are exposed to it first, they are asked to allow notifications. They can close the webpage, they can reject the offer, or they can accept notifications. We always recommend doing the former. If you have rejected the request, it is possible that you have continued on the ad page or the websites associated with the server, and that could be extremely risky. And if you have enabled notifications, you must be dealing with an avalanche of ads at this point. These ads can show up when you browse the web, and they might even show up when visiting completely harmless, trustworthy websites. Without a doubt, this could make your browsing experience very uncomfortable, especially if the ads shown are presented with shocking images. Do not worry if you are dealing with these kinds of ads because there is a way to remove them for good. Keep reading, and you will learn how to delete Lbenjamiemai.info notifications. Read more »

If you understand the risks, and you want to delete SearchProConverter as soon as possible, you can move to the last section of our report.
