Get-amazing-results.com is a clone of similar fake search engine-based websites with identical content, including a tag line about Get-amazing-results.com supposedly being the 'premiere' place on the Internet for finding great search results. However, the truth behind Get-amazing-results.com's marketing is that Get-amazing-results.com and sites identical to it are well-known by SpywareRemove.com malware analysts as distribution points for various PC threats, including phishing attacks, drive-by-downloads and a variety of malware. Since Get-amazing-results.com's is far from amazing, the...

Trojan-Banker.Win32.Banbra.atfl is a banking Trojan that's designed to steal confidential information related to your bank account; Brazil-based accounts appear to be particularly-favored targets of Trojan-Banker.Win32.Banbra.atfl's attacks. Along with a standard assortment of spyware-based functions, Trojan-Banker.Win32.Banbra.atfl also includes fake file information and a (now-revoked) digital certificate to enhance its appearance of authenticity. While this isn't the first time SpywareRemove.com malware researchers have seen malware using fraudulent certificates,...

Genieo.com claims to be a personalized news site, but PC threats closely associated with Genieo.com have shown obvious tendencies of typical browser hijacker-related antics. Malware researchers have noted browser redirects, unwarranted changes to browser settings and even monitoring of online activities linked to Genieo.com. Unless you're absolutely sure that you want Genieo.com's features as part of your browser, it's recommended that you uninstall software related to Genieo.com with an anti-malware program with a good reputation for removing adware and other low-level PC threats. When...

FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus is a ransomware Trojan that displays fake FBI warnings along with webcam input to make it appear like the FBI are monitoring your computer due to illegal activities. This alarming state of affairs is the FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus's way of not-so-gently encouraging you to pay a MoneyPak ransom in exchange for a code that supposedly unlocks your computer. While the trappings of the FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus's pop-up alert look fairly realistic, SpywareRemove.com malware experts emphasize that FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus isn't affiliated with the FBI...

Trojan.Ticboin.B is a computer Trojan horse that is a serious threat to the security and stability of an infected PC. Once Trojan.Ticboin.B loads on a system, usually during the boot process for Windows, it may open up connections to remote attackers where a hacker may be able to seek out data stored on the infected system. Also, Trojan.Ticboin.B may change system settings and cause the system to perform poorly. Different executable files may also be loaded into memory upon installation of Trojan.Ticboin.B. Ridding a system of Trojan.Ticboin.B completely usually requires the use of an...

Buzzdock Ads is an adware program that inserts advertisement listings above your Google search results. Some victims of Buzzdock Ads infections have also experienced other browser hijack-related symptoms such as 'new tab' settings changes or unwarranted usage of system resources. While Buzzdock Ads is especially associated with the Addict-Thing add-on, Buzzdock Ads installations are also promoted in the disguise of fake software updates. Since, unless you enjoy looking at extra advertisements, Buzzdock Ads doesn't have any advantages for PC users, SpywareRemove.com malware experts...

Mybrowserbar.com is a Yahoo-based search engine site that's acquired a poor reputation due to indirect association with browser hijackers and adware. Some PC users have also reported that Mybrowserbar.com engages in malware distribution – although SpywareRemove.com own malware analysts have been unable to confirm such reports or any other direct browser-related attacks from Mybrowserbar.com, itself. Be that as it may, the primary concern most people have with Mybrowserbar.com is that unwanted redirect attacks by adware-based PC threats redirect their browser to Mybrowserbar.com...

Win32:Necurs-E is a rootkit that's designed to attack 32-bit Windows systems, although many rootkits similar to Win32:Necurs-E also include compatibility with 64-bit OSes. Win32:Necurs-E infections tend to use multiple PC threats to protect each other from deletion, and your anti-malware program may be able to detect but unable to delete Win32:Necurs-E initially. However, since rootkits like Win32:Necurs-E compromise critical system files habitually, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers don't recommend deleting Win32:Necurs-E's files yourself. If your anti-malware scanner of choice...

SVC:MBAMSwissArmy is an alert for a rootkit-based PC threat that's infecting a component of the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware program. Besides being a warning for a high-level threat to your computer's safety, some cases of SVC:MBAMSwissArmy alerts have been verified as false positives, or fake warnings due to unintentional program conflicts. SpywareRemove.com malware researchers recommend that you update any anti-malware programs as regularly as possible, which should minimize false positives for SVC:MBAMSwissArmy. However, if SVC:MBAMSwissArmy is a real alert, SVC:MBAMSwissArmy should be...

Search.us.com is a search engine site that's promoted by browser hijackers through undesirable settings changes. Search.us.com hijacks have been active PC threats for quite some time – since SpywareRemove.com malware researchers have noted reports of them as far back as 2010, but unwanted redirects to Search.us.com are still occurring as of this year. Like any self-respecting type of adware, browser hijackers that promote Search.us.com will resist normal deletion/uninstall techniques and SpywareRemove.com malware researchers recommend that you remove them with appropriate anti-malware...

Win32.ZAccess.m is an alert for Windows system files that have been infected by ZeroAccess (AKA Sirefef or Max++) rootkits and Trojans. These attacks target specific Windows files and insert code for ZeroAccess to launch automatically as part of your operating system's processes, and SpywareRemove.com malware experts haven't seen any cases of Win32.ZAccess.m or related PC threats infected benign nonsystem files. Win32.ZAccess.m usually is related to launching or protecting other parts of a multi-component ZeroAccess infection, which can, themselves, launch severe attacks such as...

Searchamong.com is a fake search site that uses a Google-reminiscent interface to make up for its minimal reputation, poor search results and nonexistent marketing on the web. While it would be nice if these were the worst things that Searchamong.com did, Searchamong.com also is guilty of promoting a browser hijacker or PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) in the form of its SearchAmong Toolbar. This toolbar replaces your browser settings so that you're forced to use Searchamong.com as your homepage and search engine. Like all browser hijackers with adware associations, SpywareRemove.com...

Startpins.com is a website that claims to offer social bookmarking and favorite website/image features. To be fair to Startpins.com, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers haven't seen any signs of Startpins.com going back on its word regarding its site functions, but these mild features are overwhelmed by Startpins.com's drawbacks – as just one more destination for browser hijackers to promote in their browser-altering attacks. Browser hijackers that redirect you to Startpins.com have been seen recently in fake software updates, although similar low-level PC threats are often...

Search.foxtab.com is a Google-powered search engine that's hosted at a subdomain of foxtab.com, a browser plugin site. Unfortunately, while foxtab.com is quick to praise features for its plugin and related Search.foxtab.com search features, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers are forced to be less positive – since Search.foxtab.com-related browser hijacks are a regular occurrence for anyone who installs this company's add-on. These failings have been sufficiently severe for some PC security companies to list Search.foxtab.com, foxtab.com and related domains as adware distributors,...

'Uw computer is vergendeld' Ransomware is a variant of the International Police Association (I.P.A.) Virus that's been localized in countries that speak the Dutch language, such as Belgium and the Netherlands (similar to ' Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware 's localization to Germany). An 'Uw computer is vergendeld' Ransomware infection is easily noticed, given that 'Uw computer is vergendeld' Ransomware's first act consists of displaying a fake police warning while barricading access to the rest of your operating system. This pop-up claims that your computer has been locked down as a...
