Encryptile Ransomware

You will only need a few seconds to realize that a ransomware infection is inside your computer because your files will all be locked.

Search.we-cmf.com
The homepage on Firefox, Chrome, and Internet Explorers serves an important role of opening the gateway to the web. Search.we-cmf.com is a browser hijacker that wants to get the privilege of greeting you every time you launch your browser, and it is most likely that its developer can earn money depending on which way you move. If you use this search tool to browse the web, you might find yourself redirected to a third-party search engine that might be exploited to showcase sponsored links. Even if the hijacker was not redirecting you to third-party sites and not showing potentially malicious links, we could not recommend trusting it. ...
Search.newtab-mediasearch.com
A browser hijacker called Search.newtab-mediasearch.com might take over the homepage, the new tab, and the default search provider on Firefox and Chrome browsers with your permission. Of course, just because you let in a program yourself, does not make it reliable. In fact, most users will realize installing this search tool, but they might feel forced into doing so. According to our research, this hijacker should come bundled with the Media-Newtab extension, and most users will not realize that their browsers would be modified by installing this extension. The reality is that this extension represents the hijacker, and it has no other purpose. ...
Jack.Pot Ransomware
Before cyber criminals release their programs into the wild, they are bound to make a few test runs, and we believe that Jack.Pot Ransomware is all about that.

Tolerating the ransomware and succumbing to its demands will do you no good. ...
Screenlocker Hacking18
Screenlocker Hacking18 is a tricky Trojan program that is true to its name and locks your screen; however, it does not encrypt your files or damage your computer in any other ways as it may suggest. The main trick this malicious infection uses is deception, i.e., it pretends to be a major hit that can only be undone if you transfer the demanded fee.

Although, this attack with its locked screen and warning message could scare the unsuspecting users and push them to transfer the fee right away, we are here to share with you a way to remove Screenlocker Hacking18 from your system without any harm done. ...
Cocoslim98@gmail.com Ransomware
If your computer is under attack by Cocoslim98@gmail.com Ransomware, unfortunately, you need to prepare for the worst: losing your files. This severe threat targets your media and archive files and encrypts them with a not yet known encryption. The strangest thing about this ransomware infection is that it does not lock your screen after it takes your files hostage, it does not block your system files, it does not replace your desktop background, and it does not display any ransom notes either. What's more, this malware infection does not even drop ransom note files onto your system. ...
Fileice Ransomware
The name of Fileice Ransomware comes from the platform called “fileice.net” that the infection uses to deliver surveys. At first sight, it might look as if you need to participate in surveys just to unlock your Desktop, but, in reality, this is just a trick to make you interact with suspicious content. The website set up by FileIce LLC informs that money can be earned by promoting surveys, and that is exactly why the creator of the ransomware uses this particular platform to expose you to them. Well, why are we identifying this threat as a ransomware? ...
Search.classifiedlist.net
The installation of the Classified List extension, which promises to allow users to access websites with classifieds easily, means that Search.classifiedlist.net will be set on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome browsers. In other words, a user who installs this extension will see Search.classifiedlist.net in the place of his/her homepage and the New Tab URL. Many people install this software just to be able to find online classifieds easily, but they do not know that the settings of their browsers will be changed, which explains why people cannot say where Search.classifiedlist.net has come from. ...
Screenlocker Cuzimvirus
Your operating system is not safe as long as Screenlocker Cuzimvirus is running. Although this infection is not as dangerous as it might appear to be at first, you should not underestimate it or postpone its removal. Unfortunately, the notification that this malware introduces its victims to is very believable, and some users might be tricked into doing something risky, such as disclosing personal information or even giving up their savings. Obviously, if you have been scammed already, you need to think about your virtual security, but do that only after you delete Screenlocker Cuzimvirus from your Windows operating system. ...
Search.newtab-tvsearch.com
It seems like Search.newtab-tvsearch.com is a browser hijacker that appears together with an extension called FunkyMediaTab. The add-on is advertised as a tool capable of turning user’s browser into “TV media center,” but once installed it only adds a few bookmarks and allows Search.newtab-tvsearch.com to replace your default search engine and preferred homepage. If you expected to get a different application than this, our specialists advise not to waste any time with the browser hijacker and delete it before anything goes wrong. Apparently, the software could show search results with additional third-party advertisements, and some of this content could originate from web pages that are malicious. ...
