Trynotify.com Ads

What is trynotify[.]com?

trynotify[.]com is a rogue website designed to present visitors with highly dubious content. It also generates redirects to other untrustworthy and possibly malicious sites. It shares many common features with lulachu.comredlabellondon.comvidconverter.co, and countless others.

Most users arrive at trynotify[.]com unintentionally, since they are redirected by intrusive ads or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already present on the device. These apps can infiltrate systems without explicit user permission. Following successful installation, they cause redirects, run intrusive advertisement campaigns, and track browsing-related information.

   
Radio Fanatics Search Browser Hijacker

What is Radio Fanatics Search?

Radio Fanatics Search is a browser hijacker, a potentially unwanted application (PUA). Despite this, developers advertise it as an app that supposedly enhances the browsing experience. Typically, browser hijackers promote fake search engines by changing certain settings.

The fake search engine that Radio Fanatics Search promotes is feed.radiofanatics.com. Furthermore, apps of this type usually gather browsing data. Most people do not download browser hijackers intentionally and, therefore, they are categorized as PUAs.

   
Righ Ransomware

What is Righ?

Righ is a type of malware belonging to the Stop/Djvu ransomware family. This malicious program is designed to encrypt the data of infected devices. Cyber criminals then demand ransom payments for decryption tools/software. When Righ encrypts, all affected files are appended with the ".righ" extension.

For example, "1.jpg" becomes "1.jpg.righ", and so on for all encrypted files. Once this process is finished, a text file ("_readme.txt") is created on the victim's desktop.

   
Invod.pro Ads

What is invod[.]pro?

Invod[.]pro is the address of a web page that many people visit unintentionally. Once opened, this site opens other untrustworthy websites or loads dubious content. Note that invod[.]pro functions like many other websites of this type including, for example, lulachu[.]com, wwserch42[.]biz and newsredirect[.]ne.

People often end up on these sites due to potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on their browsers or computers. These apps often collect browsing data and display ads.

   
Lulachu.com Ads

What is lulachu[.]com?

Once opened, lulachu[.]com loads dubious content or redirects visitors to a number of other untrustworthy websites. Many other sites operate in the same manner. Some examples are wwserch42[.]biz, newsredirect[.]net and giantttraffic[.]com. Typically, websites of this type are opened by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) that are installed on browsers.

Therefore, people usually do not open these sites intentionally. Furthermore, most PUAs gather browsing data and display advertisements.

   
Obituary Directories Browser Hijacker

What is Obituary Directories?

Obituary Directories is a rogue application endorsed as a tool for quick access to various ancestry websites and obituary databases. It can supposedly provide ancestry, obituary and email services, shopping websites, news and weather related content.

In fact, it operates as a browser hijacker and modifies browsers to promote a fake search engine (search.obituariesdirectorytab.com). Furthermore, it monitors and collects browsing-related information. Most users install Obituary Directories inadvertently, and therefore it is also categorized as a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUA).

Note that Obituary Directories is often distributed together with another PUA called Hide My Searches.

   
Redlabellondon.com Ads

What is redlabellondon[.]com?

Avoid the redlabellondon[.]com website. If visited, it opens various other untrustworthy websites or loads dubious content. People do not generally visit redlabellondon[.]com or other websites of this kind intentionally. Typically, browsers open them due to installed potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

Furthermore, most PUAs collect browsing data and/or display intrusive advertisements. These apps are categorized as PUAs, since people usually download and install them inadvertently. A number of other websites that operate in a similar manner to redlabellondon[.]com are wwserch42[.]biz, newsredirect[.]net and giantttraffic[.]com.

   
Vidconverter.co Ads

What is vidconverter[.]co?

As with wwserch42.biznewsredirect.netlocalmylife.info and many other rogue websites, vidconverter[.]co present visitors with dubious content and/or redirects them to other untrustworthy and malicious web pages.

Most users access these sites inadvertently, since they are redirected by intrusive ads or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already infiltrated into the system. Note that apps within this classification do not need express permission to be installed onto devices.

PUAs operate by causing redirects, running intrusive advertisement campaigns and tracking browsing-related information.

   
Socelars Trojan

What is Socelars?

Socelars is an information stealing trojan. This malware steals Facebook and Amazon session cookies, and sensitive data from the Facebook Ads Manager. It infects systems under the guise of a PDF reader. As was discovered by MalwareHunterTeam, this fake PDF reader is promoted on identical web pages: smartpdfreader[.]com, pdfguidance[.]com, and pdfaide[.]com.

Currently, these websites do not have working download links to the bogus PDF reader, however, it is likely that there are other rogue pages that actively promote this trojan. Few users access these web pages intentionally - typically, they are redirected to them by adware-type Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs).
