Player-wyu.updatefast.co

Player-wyu.updatefast.co is a web destination used to promote a bogus media player that may attempt to install malware on the targeted computer. The media player is named "Universal Media Player", but security experts report that there isn't a piece of legitimate software that goes by its name, so they have all reasons to believe that the purpose of Player-wyu.updatefast.co is to promote malicious files that may attempt to exploit security vulnerabilities in the user's computer.

Naturally, no-one would agree to open an unknown website that promotes a bogus media player, so how are users taken there? Harmful or compromised websites may display Player-wyu.updatefast.co pop-ups while users browse them, so that's one way how some PC users may come across this web destination. Another possibility is that cyber crooks may use malware to set-up automatic redirects to Player-wyu.updatefast.co. This way, users may be automatically sent to Player-wyu.updatefast.co when they try to open a legitimate and popular website.

If you see Player-wyu.updatefast.co pop-ups or if your web browser redirects you to this website without any obvious reason, then you might have a malware problem on your hands. We recommend scanning your computer for infections and removing any detected threats. Performing a full system scan is mandatory if you have already downloaded or executed the installer of the Universal Media Player promoted by Player-wyu.updatefast.co.
