Sale Planet
If you are annoyed by third-party advertisements that are labeled "Ads by Sale Planet" or "Provided by Sale Planet" while surfing on the Internet, there can be no doubt that your computer has been infiltrated by Sale Planet. This application is totally useless, but its presence is rather undesirable since it may display potentially dangerous third-party advertisements. Due to its functioning, our malware specialists at anti-spyware-101.com have classified it as an adware program. This adware seems to affect Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers only because the new versions of Google Chrome can already block it. This tells a lot about the reliability of this program. In fact, this is an old-style SuperWeb ad-supported application that may put your system security at risk with its unreliable commercials. Although you may think that closing or ignoring these ads may help you protect your computer from further attacks or the exposure to cyber criminals, we believe that there is only one solution here: you need to remove Sale Planet as soon as possible.

Diet Interactive
Diet Interactive is a deceitful ad-supported program because it is supposed to provide you with eating diet-related content, but does nothing of the sort. We, therefore, propose that you remove this program. Now, not only will it not provide you with the promised service, but will subject you to websites of unverified legitimacy, and so, some of them can be of malicious nature. Clearly, this program is bad news, but this becomes even more apparent when you know how this application is distributed, so, on that note, let us delve deeper into how this is done. Read more »

DeepBlue Games
DeepBlue Games is an extension for Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer. It says that it can enable users to play DeepBlue games for free, which is why so many users download and install it on their systems. It has been observed that people usually get this program from deepblugames.com, play.deepblugames.com, play.deepblugames.com/mb/, and Chrome Web Store. Of course, we cannot guarantee that it is impossible to find it available for download on a third-party web page too. Either way, you should not keep any version of DeepBlue Games because this piece of software is not that trustworthy. In fact, it might really start acting in an annoying way and it is known that it might even expose users to potential threats during the time. We are sure that the majority of users do not want to risk causing harm to their systems, which is why we have kindly shared the manual removal instructions with them (you can find them below). More information about the program itself will be provided here too. Read more »
Albireo
Albireo is a useless program that has nothing to do with astronomy apart from its misleading name. It has much more to do with displaying annoying and potentially unreliable third-party ads, including banner, pop-up, and coupon commercials. Therefore, our malware researchers at Anti-Spyware-101.com have categorized this infection as an adware program. The presence of this adware can turn your web browsing into a nightmare. And not only that; clicking on the advertisements this program shows you may lead you to unsafe websites. Although a lot of computer users do not consider adware applications and their ads as dangerous, we must tell you that these commercials may connect you with cyber criminals and their vicious websites. Therefore, if you do not remove Albireo, you may put your system security at risk, not to mention your privacy. Please continue reading our article to understand more about this malware and how you can step up and protect your computer from this and similar threats. Read more »
BuiltMoneyMaker
We at Anti-spyware-101.com want to inform you about a recently released malicious program called BuiltMoneyMaker. It is an adware-type infection and we recommend that you remove it as soon as possible. This program is promoted as a tool that should help you make easy money, but it does nothing of the sort. Nevertheless, it makes money for its developers and their clients when users click the ads. However, that is not the worst aspect of this infection. The worst part is that this program can advertise scam websites, malware downloads, and other undesirable content that can jeopardize your system’s security. We suggest that you take this infection seriously and get it out of your PC before it becomes infected with more malware. Read more »
Locked Ransomware
Locked Ransomware can slither into your operating system without any warning; however, once installed, it uses different methods to introduce itself to you. According to the research conducted in our Anti-Spyware-101.com internal lab, it is possible that this ransomware will be silently installed along with other malicious infections, or it could be concealed as a fake attachment to a misleading spam email. Once unleashed, this infection will use a text file and a Desktop background image to introduce itself to you. All of this can be done with one malicious file whose location and name are very unpredictable. Of course, it is unlikely that you will think about deleting Locked Ransomware right after realizing that your personal files are encrypted. In fact, if you remove this ransomware, your files will remain encrypted, and you might lose your opportunity to fulfill the demands of cyber crooks. Read more »
Pass to Post
If you find Pass to Post on your computer, it may be a clear sign that your system has been penetrated by an adware program. Our malware researchers at Anti-Spyware-101.com say that this ad-supported program is quite disruptive with regard to your web-surfing experience, but it can also pose a threat to your virtual security. In fact, this application does not really do anything but displaying potentially dangerous third-party ads (pop-ups and best offers). Clicking on these is quite risky because you can never be sure where you may end up. Although many users simply close these ads or try to ignore them, you need to understand that these “tricks” will not stop the flow of unsafe ads on your screen. It is possible that you accidentally click on one, but there will be no way back. Online scams usually start with an “innocent” click like that. Keep that in mind when you decide on the fate of this useless program. We definitely recommend that you delete Pass to Post immediately. Unfortunately, it is quite likely that this is not even the only malware threat on your computer. Read more »
Search.fcb-search.com
Has Search.fcb-search.com corrupted your browsers without your permission? If it has, you must realize that it is a browser hijacker. Unfortunately, many computer users sort of agree to modify their search tools, which is why they are confused about this strange search tool. It all depends on how you install this hijacker, and most users acquire it along with the FCB extension. If you are introduced to it by a third-party installer, you might be informed about the homepage, new tab, and search provider modifications or this might be hidden from you completely. If you install it from the Chrome web store, the “Permissions” notifications inform about the installation of this search tool; however, you do not know how it is installed and which search spaces it occupies. Now, if you download it from fcbnewtab.com, no information about the hijacker is shared with you at all. All in all, we recommend removing Search.fcb-search.com because it is a hijacker, and trusting it can be risky. Read more »
