Wysotot

Posted: May 19, 2016

Wysotot is a stealthy Trojan that may put at risk both your information and the performance of your system. Wysotot may affect various areas of the infected computers. This threat may modify the functionality of your Web clients in a negative way. As a result, you may be transferred to potentially unsafe domains that may spread additional harmful applications. Wysotot also may disable essential components of the Operating System (OS) like your Firewall. The damage that this parasite may cause is substantial, so you should make everything possible not to allow the infection to happen in the first place. There is no sign that Wysotot uses some unique delivery tactics. Just like the majority of threatening programs, Wysotot may travel primarily as an email attachment. Wysotot also may corrupt your machine if you download any software from sites with unproven legitimacy. Even seemingly safe updates for Java or Adobe may contain corrupted codes. Sometimes unreliable download managers like GoPlayer Download Manager may encourage you to download Wysotot as well. If you have a reliable security application, it should block the incoming harmful files. If your protection is not at the necessary level, Wysotot may enter silently. This Trojan creates some files in the %APPDATA% folder. However, they don't go by the same name in all cases. If you notice the executable files eGdpSvc.exe or Laban.exe, you are certainly infected. This threat may interfere with the detected Web clients. When you launch Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer, you may be transferred towards potentially harmful domains like 22apple.com, 22find.com, delta-homes.com, laban.vn or portaldosites.com. Some of these sites may appear instead of your homepage. These questionable platforms may try to deploy other threats on your PC. They also may redirect you towards other threatening places on the Internet. Wysotot may connect your system to remote hosts like dpdownload.com, wonext.com and xingcloud.com silently. The Trojan may download additional cyber threats from there, which may cause various issues. If you think you may be infected with Wysotot, you should perform a full diagnostic test on your PC with a reliable security utility immediately.
