GiffySocial Toolbar

Even if you want to see random GIFs every time you open the new tab page, GiffySocial Toolbar is not an extension you want to install. It is compatible with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer web browsers, but it is important to note that Internet Explorer users install it as an application, not an extension. In any case, the app takes over the new tab. Considering that the services of this application/add-on are not the most beneficial, we classify it as a potentially unwanted program. The good news is that PUPs are easy to delete. All you have to do is find the right extension entry and uninstaller, and we can help you with that. If you cannot wait to remove GiffySocial Toolbar, scroll down to the guide below. If you want to understand the PUP better before you decide whether or not you want to delete it too, continue reading the article. Note that if you come up with any questions along the way, you can add them to the comments section below. Read more »

Dablio Ransomware

If you are seeing a note saying “#DABLIO Good Morning. Good afternoon. Good evening,” you are most likely dealing with the so-called Dablio Ransomware. The rest of the note should explain how to pay a ransom to decrypt the files the malicious program encrypts upon entering the computer. Of course, we do not recommend paying anything as there are no guarantees the cybercriminals who created the infection will hold on to their word. In other words, you could get scammed, and if you do not want to risk it happening, we would recommend not to negotiate with the hackers, but to erase the malicious application. Its deletion will not restore any files, although you try to get them back with backup copies or data recovery tools. For more information about Dablio Ransomware, we invite you to read our full report. Just a bit below it you should find our deletion instructions that explain how to eliminate the malware by yourself. Read more »

Speedy PC Pro 2018

Speedy PC Pro 2018

Free PC optimization tools that promise to clean the system and considerably improve its performance exist on the market, but Speedy PC Pro 2018 is not one of them, as research has clearly shown. If you install it, you could only use it as a diagnostic scanner. It will list all found issues/errors, but it will not fix a single one of them unless you purchase a license and upgrade the program. The license is not very expensive, so some users decide to invest in this program. This is not what we recommend that you do if you have already installed Speedy PC Pro 2018 on your computer because we cannot guarantee that this application could solve all your PC problems and improve its performance. It does not show any fake scan results like some other programs pretending to be reliable PC optimization tools, but it is very likely that it shows only insignificant issues. We leave the final decision in your hands, but it would be better that you purchase a more trustworthy application’s license. Have you already installed Speedy PC Pro 2018 on your computer? If so, we highly recommend that you erase it if you are not going to upgrade it because it might start showing various pop-ups on your screen to push you into purchasing the license. Even though they do not seem to be irritating at first, we are sure you will sooner or later find them extremely annoying. Read more »

FreeHosting APT PowerSploit Poison Ivy

Posted by on December 17, 2018 No comments

FreeHosting APT PowerSploit Poison Ivy is the name of the cyber attack that was organized by cyber criminals back in 2017. This was definitely not an ordinary cyber attack. It was planned from beginning to end and affected only a specific group of users. To be more specific, they received emails with malicious download links. It is now known that emails that were involved in the malicious attack were these: wisers.data@gmail.com and health.pro.demo30@gmail.com. If it happens that you find an unopened email sent to you from any of these email addresses, you should ignore it completely because even though it is old, it might still cause you security problems once opened. It is hard to say whether cyber criminals might perform the same attack again in the near future, but they might surely perform similar cyber attacks based on the FreeHosting APT PowerSploit Poison Ivy modus operandi, so you should stay cautious. First, never open any suspicious email attachments and do not click on links suspicious emails contain. Second, do not download any programs from random websites you find on the web. Third, there must be a security application installed on your computer. Speaking about an automated antimalware tool, it will protect you against all kinds of computer threats as long as you keep it active on your system. Read more »

Katyusha Ransomware

How many personal photos and important document files are stored on your Windows operating system? Unfortunately, Katyusha Ransomware can encrypt all of them. This dangerous infection is like a bulldozer, and it can destroy everything in its way. Of course, it is not programmed to encrypt system files because that would make it impossible for cyber attackers to make their own demands. When it comes to the demands, the attackers behind the ransomware want only one thing, and that is your money. The majority of file-encryptors are created for this one purpose alone. There have been threats that Anti-Spyware-101.com recognized as “educational” – such as Ctf Ransomware or GPCode Ransomware – but most of them were created to fill the pockets of criminals. If you do not want cyber attackers to reach their goal, do not respond to their demands and quickly delete Katyusha Ransomware instead. If the removal of this threat intimidates you, the information in this guide will ease your mind. Read more »
