Virus and Spyware Removal Guides, uninstall instructions
What is blpsearch.com?
According to the developers, the ConvertoPDF app allows users to quickly convert PDF files directly from their browsers. This may seem to be a useful feature, however, ConvertoPDF is a potentially unwanted application (PUA), a browser hijacker. Generally, people download and install apps of this type inadvertently without their knowledge.
This PUA modifies browser settings (promoting the blpsearch.com search engine) and gathers information relating to users' browsing activity.
What is vxCrypter?
Discovered by Lawrence Abrams, vxCrypter is software that is categorized as ransomware. Like most programs of this type, it prevents victims from accessing their data unless a ransom is paid. It adds the ".xLck" extension to each encrypted file. For example, "1.jpg" is renamed to "1.jpg.xLck" after encryption.
The ransomware deletes duplicate files, however, other files should not be deleted. This malicious program displays a ransom message in a pop-up window that appears once the computer is infected.
What is qsearch.com?
qsearch.com is an untrustworthy website that is promoted through potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). Therefore, most people visit this website due to PUAs installed on their browsers (or computers). These apps cause unwanted redirects, collect user-system information, and display intrusive ads. Generally, people do not download and install PUAs intentionally.
What is tontritrattof.info?
The tontritrattof.info website displays dubious content or opens other malicious websites. This rogue site is very similar to hajoopteg.com, lythenheckwo.info, time2notification.com, and many others. Most visitors are forced to open tontritrattof.info by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) installed on their systems.
PUAs usually have three main purposes: to cause redirects, collect data, and serve users with ads.
What is Total System Care?
The Total System Care program is presented as a "performance suite" that provides various tools to optimize Windows Operating Systems and improve performance.
The "bundling" method is used to promote and distribute this program, and it is thus categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA). Many users install these apps unintentionally together with other regular software.
What is blogsfeed.info?
blogsfeed.info one of many rogue websites (virtually identical to push-checking.com, hajoopteg.com, lythenheckwo.info, and many more) designed to cause redirects to untrustworthy and potentially malicious websites or display dubious content. Most users arrive at blogsfeed.info inadvertently - they are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).
These programs are usually installed unintentionally without users' consent. In addition to redirects, PUAs deliver intrusive ads and collect data.
What is "Upgrade your edition of Microsoft Word Email Virus"?
"Upgrade your edition of Microsoft Word Email Virus" is a spam campaign that cyber criminals use to spread the Emotet infection. This is a trojan-type program, a high-risk computer infection. To trick people into installing this software, cyber criminals send emails that contain a malicious attachment, a Microsoft Word document.
The main purpose of this spam campaign is to trick recipients into opening the attachment. To keep your computer safe, we recommend that you ignore this email.
What is moocauby.com?
moocauby.com is a deceptive website designed to redirect users to other dubious sites and deliver content. It is virtually identical to a number of other websites of this type including lythenheckwo.info, time2notification.com, and appenzaeart.club.
Most visitors arrive at moocauby.com inadvertently - they are redirected by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) or intrusive advertisements. Potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) usually infiltrate computers without permission, cause redirects, deliver intrusive advertisements, and record data relating to users' browsing habits.
What kind of page is 0123movies.com?
The 0123movies.com website allows visitors to watch movies online free of charge. This may seem to be a legitimate and useful website, however, developers use it to promote other dubious sites, software, various services, and so on. Note that the site causes redirects to other untrustworthy websites.
Furthermore, these redirects occur on virtually every mouse click. To avoid the resultant installation of unwanted apps and computer infections, we recommend that you avoid 0123movies.com and any associated services.
What is ms13?
Discovered by Jakub Kroustek, ms13 is yet another ransomware infection belonging to the Dharma malware family. As with other viruses of this kind, ms13 compromises stored data by encryption. In addition, it appends filenames with the ".ms13" extension plus the victim's unique ID and developer's email address.
For example, "sample.jpg" might be renamed to a filename such as "sample.jpg.id-1E857D00.[ms_13@aol.com].ms13". After successful encryption, ms13 displays a pop-up window and places a text file ("FILES ENCRYPTED.txt") on the desktop.
