'Insane@airmail.cc' Ransomware, also known as InsaneCrypt Ransomware, is a new threat to your files, which can sneak onto your computer behind you back and encrypt all your important files. Our malware experts at anti-spyware-101.com say that this ransomware program may actually be decryptable, which could mean that your files could be recovered. However, there is no free tool yet available that you could use to recover your files, but it is quite likely to surface in the near future. These attackers want you to contact them for further detail on payment since the ransom note is rather short and lacking information. We have no information yet as to the amount of the ransom fee but we do not advise you to pay any money, either. It would be a waste if you consider the possibility that a free decryptor may emerge soon and it is not even guaranteed that these cyber criminals keep their word and send you the decryption key. We advise you to remove 'Insane@airmail.cc' Ransomware immediately if you want to use your computer. Read more »

Secure Chrome PRO
Secure Chrome PRO is a Google Chrome extension that our research team classifies as a browser hijacker. The only function of this strange extension is to modify your default search provider, and even if you install it yourself, you are not informed about the changes. The hijacker only informs that the data you see on the websites you visit can be read and modified, which is quite strange as well. The fact that the default search provider is modified without one’s permission is truly unnerving because that means that the extension is not transparent and that it could work in other malicious ways too. As you might have found already, there is no information about the creator of the extension or the activity of the extension itself that is available to users. Even a download page that would represent this strange add-on does not exist. Is this strange? It definitely is because that makes the extension unpredictable, and that is a good enough reason to remove Secure Chrome PRO. If you are not sure if you want to delete this hijacker, or you do not know how to do it, continue reading. Read more »

Velso Ransomware
Researchers working at anti-spyware-101.com have discovered a new malicious application Velso Ransomware. It is one of those harmful threats that encrypt files on compromised machines so that cyber criminals behind them could obtain money from users. This infection locks almost all files it finds on affected computers, including documents, pictures, text files, music, videos, and even web browsers (Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome). All this threat wants from you is your money, but you should not transfer a penny to cyber criminals even if you are told that it is the only way to get files back. We are strictly against sending money to crooks because you do not know whether they will return files to you. Second, users should not support malicious software developers by sending money to them because they might encounter their new creations in the near future. Of course, it does not mean that you can keep the ransomware infection active on your computer because it might be launched again and perform the encryption of files one more time. If it happens, all the newest files will become locked. We are sure you do not want this to happen to you, so we will help you to remove Velso Ransomware from your system completely.

Lilplay
Lilplay is a devious service that cannot be trusted entirely. In fact, malware experts at Anti-Spyware-101.com have discovered some rather fraudulent activities on behalf of Emhir Ltd., who are the creators of this service.

BigEyes Ransomware
BigEyes Ransomware, also known as LimeDecryptor Ransomware, is a dangerous malicious application that belongs to the category of crypto-malware. If it ever infiltrates your computer, it will cause you a lot of trouble because it always encrypts a bunch of personal files on victims’ computers. This infection does not differ much from older threats even though it is new – it is also used to obtain money from users. Do not send a cent to malicious software developers even if your important files have been locked because they will never stop developing new infections if all victims send money to them. Also, we cannot promise that you could unlock your data after you pay a ransom, so it would be smart not to spend money on the tool that, theoretically, can unlock files. There is a small possibility that a free decryptor will be developed by specialists in the future, so remove the ransomware infection from your system completely but do not rush to remove all encrypted data, especially if there are extremely important files among those encrypted ones. Read this article till the end the end to find more about the BigEyes Ransomware removal. Read more »
Krypton Ransomware
You need to do everything to keep your operating system malware-free because there are so many dangerous infections out there. One of them is Krypton Ransomware, and it is one serious threat because it can destroy your personal files. Though it does not remove them, it encrypts them, which means that they cannot be opened and read. Decrypting these files is possible only if you have a decryption key, and you do not. The creator of this ransomware delivers a misleading message suggesting that a key can be bought for 300 USD, but you should not pay this price. If you do, your money will be lost, but a decryptor will not be given to you. Of course, we cannot guarantee this 100%, but Anti-Spyware-101.com malware researchers have analyzed hundreds of ransomware threats, and their victims never get what is promised to them. The infection discussed in this report was created using the Hidden Tear code, and it has been used by the developers of KoreanLocker Ransomware, Genocheats Ransomware, and many other threats that require removal. Since there are so many of them, it is important that you focus on further protection as much as you focus on deleting Krypton Ransomware. Read more »
Home.mapsnt.com
The sudden appearance of Home.mapsnt.com does not indicate anything positive. It simply shows that the entrance of the browser hijacker infection was successful. Home.mapsnt.com has been developed on the same template as other Polarity Technologies Ltd. products, for example, Search.yourpackagesnow.com and Search.searchlttrn.com, so it did not take long for researchers working at anti-spyware-101.com to find out that it is one of those untrustworthy search providers. They say that it might even expose users to potential threats if they use it fearlessly because it might present them with untrustworthy links leading to third-party websites. If you do not want this to happen to you, remove Search.searchlttrn.com from all your browsers today and start using another more trustworthy search provider. It will take some time to get rid of this browser hijacker, but we are sure you will successfully eliminate it from all affected browsers yourself. The next two paragraphs will explain to you why it is so important to get rid of it as soon as possible, so read them carefully if you cannot decide easily whether or not to keep it. Read more »
