This program was created to make its developers money and its functionality is questionable at best. We have tested this program and found some bad things about it.

EZSearch
If you ever find the extension EZSearch with the unique ID ikmapcaeknfgfmjlibnhcbchfablckbp installed on your Google Chrome browser, you should immediately go to remove it because it is, undoubtedly, not a piece of software that can be trusted. Its main purpose is to promote the Yahoo! search engine, so it creates a shortcut on Desktop after the successful installation that opens search.yahoo.com/search?p={searchTerms}&xpubz=8z108mno&r=yy62f009mvb12&trk=b1v300. Since the shortcut it creates looks exactly like a legit shortcut of Google Chrome, users often click on it and are presented with the Google Chrome page with this search URL at the top. ...
Cerberos Ransomware
Ransomware programs are quite common nowadays; this being aware of them is crucial if you consider yourself to be a security-conscious user. One such application goes by the name of Cerberos Ransomware. If you happen to encounter it, be sure to stay away from it at all costs. If you are not familiar with malicious applications of this category, you must know that they are extremely dangerous. That is so because ransomware programs are fully capable of locking large amounts of personal data within the infected computer. This is dangerous as users could lose sensitive and otherwise important data. Such programs are usually used by cyber crooks so they could profit illegally. ...
BlackRose Ransomware
BlackRose Ransomware is a newly-detected ransomware threat encrypting files. It enters computers to ruin users’ pictures, documents, and other important files, so you could no longer open a bunch of your files a second after its infiltration. This program only seeks to make you pay money, so it targets the only really valuable thing stored on the computer – your personal data. Although your files have been locked to obtain money from you, do not pay the money required by cyber criminals. It might be impossible to get files back without it, but there are also no guarantees that the file decryptor will be sent to you after the owner of BlackRose Ransomware receives money. ...
Registry Scanner
Registry Scanner is a useless and potentially unreliable application that can sneak onto your computer silently, behind your back. In all fairness, we also need to mention that it does have an official site where it is available for download. Nevertheless, our tests and research indicate that this is a potentially unwanted program (PUP) that has no benefit for you whatsoever; even though it claims to boost your PC's performance. As a matter of fact, there is no real proof that such registry cleaner software can enhance the speed or any other characteristic of your computer. ...
Adblocker For Youtube
We have recently tested an application called Adblocker For Youtube, a browser extension compatible with Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. There are many adblockers for these browsers so you can mistake this particular browser extension for a decent adblocker. In truth, however, Adblocker For Youtube is a useless application that we have classified as a potentially unwanted program and recommend that you remove it. We have found that this program connects to shady servers and is added to Windows Defender’s scan exclusion list which might suggest that this program has something to hide. ...
Y2Go
If you encountered a suspicious program called Y2Go, we advise you to learn more about it as there is a possibility the application could violate your privacy. It looks like its working manner might allow the software to access your browsing history or even log in and other personal information alike transmitted via the Internet. Because of these undesirable qualities, the tool falls under the classification of potentially unwanted programs (PUPs). To stop the application from gathering information that could be private, we would advise users to remove it immediately. Sadly, it does not have an uninstall file, so the tool cannot be erased via Control Panel. ...
Tools Plus
If you have started seeing coupons, shopping suggestions, and other shopping-related content, a program Tools Plus might be installed on your system. This piece of software is a browser extension compatible with Google Chrome, and it is presented as “the browser add-on that helps you shop better.” Even though it puts much effort into convincing users that it is a beneficial piece of software that can improve the online shopping experience to a great extent, malware analysts at 411-spyware.com have understood the second they have opened this program that it is not what it claims to be. They have made a decision to classify Tools Plus as an adware program. ...
Search.searchtpo.com
Search.searchtpo.com is the newest creation of Polarity Technologies Ltd, a company our malware analysts know well. It has already developed a bunch of different search tools, including Search.yourmapscenter.com, Search.youremailnow.com, and others. Its all products are based on the same template, so, although Search.searchtpo.com it is a new page it has developed, it does not differ much from these websites released some time ago. This is, it also pretends to be a legitimate search provider. To be frank, it is far from reputable search tools like Yahoo! and Google, so do not expect it to improve your web searching experience. ...
Search.searchicc.com
Based on the user’s browser Search.searchicc.com might replace the user’s preferred start page, search provider, or new tab page. Accordingly, the application falls under the classification of browser hijackers. However, changed browser settings is only one of the reasons why the application is considered as unreliable. It would seem it might also modify the search results it displays by injecting them with doubtful third-party advertising content, so if you happen to encounter it, we advise you to read the full report and get to know the threat better. ...
