  • Remove ANY TOOLBAR from Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome
    Remove ANY TOOLBAR from Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome Browser toolbars have been around for years, however, in the last couple of months they became a huge mess. Unfortunately, lots of free software comes with more or less unwanted add-ons or browser toolbars. These are quite annoying because they may: Change your homepage and your search engine without your permission or awareness Track your browsing activities and searches Display annoying ads and manipulate search results Take up a lot of (vertical) space inside the browser Slow down your browser and degrade your browsing experience Fight against each other and make normal add-on handling difficult or impossible Become difficult or even impossible for the average user to fully uninstall Toolbars are not technically not a virus, but they do exhibit plenty of malicious traits, such as rootkit capabilities to hook deep into the operating system, browser hijacking, and in general just interfering with the user experience. The industry generally refers to it as a “PUP,” or potentially unwanted program. Generally speaking, toolbars are ad-supported (users may see additional banner, search, pop-up, pop-under, interstitial and in-text link advertisements) cross web browser plugin for Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome, and distributed through various monetization platforms during installation. Very often users have no idea where did it come from, so it’s not surprising at all that most of them assume that the installed toolbar is a virus. For example, when you install iLivid Media Player, you will also agree to change your browser homepage to search.conduit.com, set your default search engine to Conduit Search, and install the AVG Search-Results Toolbar.

  • Six Years and Counting: Inside the Complex Zacinlo Ad Fraud Operation White Paper
    White Paper Six Years and Counting: Inside the Complex Zacinlo Ad Fraud Operation White Paper Authors: Claudiu Cobliș - Security Researcher, Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab Cristian Istrate - Security Researcher Tech Lead, Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab Cornel Punga - Security Researcher, Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab Andrei Ardelean - Security Researcher, Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab [2] White Paper Foreword For more than a decade, adware has helped software creators earn money while bringing free applications to the masses. Headliner games and applications have become widely available to computer and mobile users the world over, with no financial strings attached. This contract between the developer and the consumer, however, is governed by third parties –the advertisers – the entities that absorb the product’s cost in exchange for user-generated information and behavior. Enter the adware era. While generating untold revenue for the companies that run these programs, adware has witnessed constant improvements over the years in both data collection and resilience to removal. The line between adware and spyware has become increasingly fuzzy during recent years as modern adware combines aggressive opt-outs with confusing legal and marketing terms as well as extremely sophisticated persistence mechanisms aimed at taking control away from the user. This whitepaper details an extremely sophisticated piece of spyware that has been running covertly since early 2012, generating revenue for its operators and compromising the privacy of its victims. One of the perks of identifying a new strain of malware is getting to name it. We called this adware family “Zacinlo”, after the final payload, although this might not be the most appropriate name for such a complex piece of code.
