What is hp.myway.com?

OnlineFormFinder developers (Mindspark Interactive Network) promote this application as a useful tool that allows users to find various free printable forms (tax, healthcare, travel immigration, etc.) directly from their web browsers.

This application may seem useful, however, it is known to be a deceptive app and is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA) and a browser hijacker. This app is often installed inadvertently and is designed to provide supposedly 'useful tools'. It also promotes a dubious search engine.

What is StorageCrypter?

StorageCrypter is high-risk ransomware discovered by Michael Gillespie. After successfully infiltrating the system, StorageCrypter encrypts most files, thereby making them unusable. During encryption, this malware adds the ".locked" appendix to the name of each compromised file.

For instance, "sample.jpg" is renamed to "sample.jpg.locked". Following successful encryption, StorageCrypter generates a text file ("read_me_for_recover_your_files.txt") and places a copy in all existing folders.

What is Chromium?

Chromium is a legitimate open-source web browser developed by the Google corporation. Its appearance barely differs from the Google Chrome browser and cyber criminals take advantage of this. They modify the original Chromium source code and proliferate rogue variants.

Therefore, since Chromium is very similar to Google Chrome, many users do not even notice that they are using Chromium rather than Google Chrome. Using rogue variants, cyber criminals gather information, deliver intrusive ads, and perform other malicious actions.

In this article, we describe a  rogue Chromium variant that contains a malicious pre-installed plug-in with a rather generic name, "Management". This extension is capable of performing a number of malicious actions.
