Search.searchefc.com
Search.searchefc.com is a suspicious search provider often classified as a browser hijacker. It has been developed by Polarity Technologies Ltd., a company that creates search tools on the same template. It is the author of Search.yourpackagesnow.com, Search.mapscenter.com, Search.searchjsmmp.com, and many other legitimate-looking search providers. We do not say that Search.searchefc.com is extremely malicious, but we still do not think that it is a very good idea to use it as a tool for searching the information on the web because research has shown that it might present users with the so-called modified search results, which means that we cannot promise that your web searches will be 100% safe. ...

Vega Stealer
Companies that offer advertising and marketing services and that work in retail and manufacturing industries must be cautious about Vega Stealer. The threat is specifically targeted at bigger companies that offer customer support, and whose contact emails are available publically. Based on the email address that is obtained, cyber criminals can create fictitious messages that allegedly address issues. If the recipient of such an email is tricked into believing that the message is real, they are likely to be tricked into opening an attachment file (Word Document) that is actually corrupted. ...
Ember Relax Background
Ember Relax Background is not 100% reliable software, so we cannot let you install it on your computer. It is presented as a “cosmic background” where users can control anything, including color, speed, and the size of elements on the background. Users can open and modify this background after installing Ember Relax Background, but this piece of software does not do anything else, so our researchers have some doubts about its usefulness too. Potentially unwanted programs are, technically, far from Trojans, ransomware, or other popular malicious applications threatening to enter users’ computers illegally, but they should still not be kept active on the system because they might perform undesirable activities. ...
CryptoShuffler Cryptojacking
CryptoShuffler Cryptojacking is not an ordinary malicious application. Even though researchers have categorized it as a Trojan, it has one unique feature that distinguishes it from them all – it hijacks clipboards. According to researchers, this is really something new, and it seems that it works because criminals behind this malicious application have already succeeded in stealing almost 140 000 US dollars. The chances are high that this amount of money will soon double because it seems that CryptoShuffler Cryptojacking has several different versions. ...
