Veletonjectof.pro Ads

What is veletonjectof[.]pro?

veletonjectof[.]pro is a rogue website designed to present visitors with dubious content and generate redirects to rogue and malicious sites. It shares many similarities with lurunews.bizanwap-download.clubmirox22.biz, and countless other sites.

Few users access this web page intentionally - most are redirected by intrusive advertisements or Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) already present on the device. Note that these apps do not need explicit permission to infiltrate systems. PUAs simply cause redirects, deliver ad campaigns, and track data.

   
Messanger.win Ads

What is messanger[.]win?

Sharing many similar traits with allwebdesignesu.infolurunews.biz, mirox22.biz, and thousands of others, messanger[.]win is a rogue website. It operates by presenting visitors with dubious content and generates redirects to other untrustworthy and malicious sites.

Most visitors enter this web page inadvertently - they are redirected by Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUAs) or intrusive ads. These apps do not need express user permission to infiltrate devices. They then cause redirects, deliver intrusive advertisement campaigns, and track private data.

   
Funnytues POP-UP Scam (Mac)

What is Funnytues?

Funnytues is the name of a family of websites that promote dubious applications. They display fake notifications stating that the visitor's computer is infected with viruses. To remove 'detected' viruses, visitors are encouraged to download a dubious app.

In this particular case, the advertised app is Smart Mac Booster, which is categorized as potentially unwanted app (PUA), since people download and install it unintentionally, or they are tricked by websites that belong to the Funnytues family (or other similar web pages).

Do not download or install applications that are distributed through deceptive websites. If a browser opens these sites automatically, a PUA is likely to be already installed on it.

   
Apple.com-optimizing-mac.live POP-UP Scam (Mac)

What is apple.com-optimizing-mac[.]live?

apple.com-optimizing-mac[.]live is the address of a website that scammers use to trick people into downloading and installing a rogue application called Cleanup My Mac. This website informs visitors that their computers are infected with viruses and suggests they be removed with the aforementioned software.

This is a deceptive website and should not be trusted - do not download or install software advertised on it. Sites such as apple.com-optimizing-mac[.]live are usually opened when a potentially unwanted application (PUA) is installed on the user's browser or computer.

Apps of this type force people to visit dubious web pages. They also gather information and display intrusive ads. In most cases, people download and install PUAs inadvertently.

   
PBD Ransomware

What is PBD?

Discovered by Jakub Kroustek, PBD ransomware is part of the Dharma family of ransomware-type programs. Typically, ransomware encrypts data stored on computers so that victims cannot use their files unless they decrypt them with a decryption tool/key, which can be purchased from cyber criminals.

Victims of the ransomware are thus forced to pay a ransom. PBD creates a ransom message within the "FILES ENCRYPTED.txt" file and displays another in a pop-up window. It also renames all files by adding a personal ID, email address, and ".PBD" extension to filenames.

For example, "1.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "1.jpg.id-1E857D00.[paybuyday@aol.com].PBD".

   
PC Power Plus Unwanted Application

What is PC Power Plus?

PC Power Plus is software advertised as a system cleaner, booster, and overall performance enhancer. It is supposedly capable of detecting and removing various unnecessary files, registry, privacy, shortcut, and safety issues.

This program has an official website from which a trial version can be downloaded and the full version purchased, however, PC Power Plus might also be promoted in other dubious ways. It can be inadvertently installed together with other software - this marketing method is called "bundling".

Due to these dubious distribution methods, PC Power Plus is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUA).

   
LookupShare Adware (Mac)

What is LookupShare?

LookupShare is advertised as an app that helps users to browse the web, however, it is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA) and adware.

Typically, people download and install software such as LookupShare unintentionally. When installed, adware-type apps serve advertisements and gather information relating to users' browsing activities. We advise you to uninstall LookupShare and other apps of this type installed on the browser and/or operating system immediately.

   
Witarheckrenning.pro Ads

What is witarheckrenning[.]pro?

Once opened, witarheckrenning[.]pro redirects people to other rogue websites or displays dubious content. In any case, avoid this website and do not trust it. There are many websites of this type online including, for example, mirox22[.]biz, push-tools-system[.]com, and gunnepaa[.]xyz.

Browsers generally open these web addresses due to potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on them. People do not often visit websites such as witarheckrenning[.]pro, or download/install PUAs, intentionally. Furthermore, PUAs feed users with ads and record private information.

   
Live Radio Pro Tab Browser Hijacker

What is Live Radio Pro Tab?

Live Radio Pro Tab is one of many browser hijackers and promoted as a tool for easy access to online radios.

It operates by making unauthorized changes to browsers and promoting search.tliveradiopro.com (a fake search engine). Live Radio Pro Tab also has data tracking capabilities, which it employs to record users' browsing habits. For the above reasons, it is categorized as a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUA).

   
Funnymonday POP-UP Scam (Mac)

What is "Funnymonday"?

Funnymonday is a family of websites, which operate by endorsing untrustworthy applications. This variant promotes Smart Mac Booster, which is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Application (PUA). Using scare tactics, Funnymonday urges people into downloading/installing the dubious software it advertises.

Visitors are alerted about fake threats/issues the site has supposedly detected and offers Smart Mac Booster as an app capable of eliminating these problems.

Note that no website can detect such issues. You are strongly advised against downloading/installing any applications that Funnymonday promotes - they are often bogus and nonfunctional. Web pages such as Funnymonday are generally opened by PUAs already present on the system.
