Boxore Adware (Uninstall Guide)

Don't Copy From This Blog...

Today we came across another adware application called Boxore. It's distributed the old-fashioned way: people search for free online movie streaming sites where they could watch their favorite movies and TV shows without actually downloading them. Let's take The Dark Knight Rises as an example which stormed its way to the top of the US box office. There are many websites that allow you to watch this movie online and for free. Sounds good to be true? You betcha!

Most of the time, you either have to buy credits or download their "player" that is supposedly necessary to watch the movie. One of such streaming websites generated an error message claiming that we can't watch the movie because we don't have some fancy codecs installed on our machine. But that's not a problem, they immediately told us to download this free multimedia player called Player Plus which fixes everything right away. So, we did.

Surprisingly, the Player Plus setup wizard was in French even thought we were redirected from a video streaming site in English and the official download page was also in English. As you can see in the image below, we could choose not to install Boxore client and Babylon Toolbar but let's just say we were so excited or maybe inattentive and missed that option.



Everything went smoothly, we went back to the streaming site, clicked play button again and for our great disappointment we were able to watch The Dark Knight Rises trailer only, not the full movie. Darn scammers!

So, after all, we ended up with the Babylon toolbar and Boxore adware on our computer. You can read more about Babylon toolbar and Babylon search engine here. Now, let's have a look at Boxore client. There are two main components of this software: boxore.exe (client) and Update.exe (service). Both are set to start up automatically whenever you turn on your computer.

Going through boxore.exe file properties, comments section, quickly reveals what it's all about:

Get offers and recommendations matching with what you like (videos, games, music, ...)

The same information can be found at boxore.com. Furthermore, Boxore adware authors assure that their product is 100% safe, free and anonymous. It doesn't collect any information about the users. Boxore simply scans all the websites you visit searching for keywords that could help them determine what kind of topics you are interested in when browsing the net.

Boxore.exe sends ad requests regularly. If there's no ad available at that moment, it keeps monitoring your browsing habits. But we didn't have to wait very long for the first ad to show up. This advertisement (see the image below) was loaded after twenty or so minutes.



The ad came from openadserving.com. This website is currently ranking among 4000 most popular sites in the world. Even though, this data isn't very reliable we can still assume that Boxore network is serving ads to thousands of users each day.



And finally, one interesting fact about the multimedia player we downloaded: there are actually two versions of the Player Plus. If you download Player Plus from playerplus.com then you will get a clean version of this application. No toolbars, adware, etc. However, if you download Player Plus from a streaming site then you will get the evil version Player Plus X.



Last but but least, along with the Boxore adware came this Chrome extension called Smart Displat 1.1. We are not sure what it is, and we could find any information about this extension because it was removed from Chrome store. One way or another, this extension should be removed as well.

To remove Boxore adware and associated applications from your computer, please follow the removal instructions below. Good luck!

Remove Welcome to Nginx! (Uninstall Guide)

Don't Copy From This Blog...

Our guess is if you're reading this, you've probably encountered a plain white web page referring to "Welcome to Nginx!" in your web browser. Further post will provide more details about this apparently very common problem and hopefully will help you solve it.

Nginx is rather popular open source web server software. It improves web servers' performance and stability. As a result, websites load faster and generate fewer errors. One out of ten website are delivered by web servers using this software. Needless to say, it’s a useful piece of code.

"Welcome to Nginx!" is basically a diagnostic web page. It indicates that Ngnix software was successfully installed on a web server. NOT your computer!



Normally, it's not a threat. It's nothing more than just a web page. You can encounter it while browsing the net. That's normal. However, if you are being constantly redirecting to Welcome to Nginx! web page then it's about time to raise red flags. This should not happen if your computer and network are clean and safe.

Of course, it's not necessary a malware infection. Sometimes, it's a web browser specific problem. Dumping web browser's cache and browsing history solves the problem quite easily. Toolbars and web browser add-ons may also cause "Welcome to Nginx!" message to appear in your web browser, especially when they have predefined start pages, etc. If it affects multiple browsers, you would like to flush your DNS cache, restore default settings or restart your router. It might actually help, just give it a try.

Typically, when a malicious software infection occurs, it will become obvious to you right away. Suddenly, your computer speed isn't fair. Strange pop-ups, search redirects, shady sites, you name it. But it might not be so obvious when the only sign of malware infection is the Welcome to Nginx! page. That's why most people say they got the Welcome to Nginx! virus. And they are right (sort of).

We can confirm there's malware that modifies Windows Hosts file and redirects users to malicious websites. Normally, this malware displays ads on the infected computer and redirects search results. Sometimes, malware redirects users to websites that encounter temporary outage or are moved to other location. This happens very often for numerous reasons.

First of all, scammers have to change their web servers or hosting providers quite often to keep their business up and running smoothly. Secondly, they might be loading ads from websites they cannot control. In other words, they are affiliates generating false clicks and ad impressions. Of course, there are more reasons, both technical and tactical, but these two are usually the most common. One way or another, you need to remove the Welcome to Nginx! virus from your computer because vividly speaking cyber criminals have a living gent inside your computer and they can do whatever they want to do. For example, they can secretly install spyware modules or use your computer for DDoS attacks. And that's not good.

To fix the Welcome to Nginx! problem and remove any malware that could cause it, please follow the steps in the removal guide below. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please leave a comment below. Good luck and be safe online!

"Welcome to Nginx!" removal instructions:

1. Download recommended anti-malware software (direct download) and run a full system scan to remove this virus and associated malware from your computer.

2. Check Windows HOSTS file.

Go to: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc.
Double-click "hosts" file to open it. Choose to open with Notepad.

Remove Police Central e-crime Unit Virus (Uninstall Guide)

Don't Copy From This Blog...

Picture this, you turn on your computer and there's a message from Police Central e-crime Unit accusing you of an internet crime (illegally distributing copyrighted files and pornography) and then it demands money. If you were faced with this fake message then your computer is infected with a virus called ransomware. And you're certainly not alone. These scams are spreading like wild fire and can definitely cause you trouble whether you give your money to the scammers or not.

Similar scams have also been out there claiming to be from FBI and U.S. Justice Department. Whether it would be the Police Central e-crime Unit virus or any other similar scam they all have one thing in common, they lock down your computer and then demand money. If you pay the scammers to unlock your computer, they may actually dot but will most likely continue to use your computer secretly to launch even more virus attacks and internet scams.

So far, we've seen two slightly different variants of Police Central e-crime Unit ransomware. The first variant belongs to the Win32/Weelsof malware family. Basically, it's a Trojan that allows hackers to perform a number of actions on the infected computer. And they certain can launch such fake Police warnings as shown in the image below.



While this one is clearly targeting UK users, scammers have very similar scams ready to be used in other countries as well.

The Weelsof Trojan is a new piece of malware. It was documented earlier this year (June, 2012). Please note that ransomware scam is only one of its payloads. Fortunately, most antivirus programs will detect this ransomware right away but if your computer caches this virus then you need to get a better protection.

The second variant of Police Central e-crime Unit (PCeU) ransomware belongs to the Win32/Reveton malware family. As you can see, the fake waning is slightly different, more sophisticated, claiming to be from Specialist Crime Directorate rather than Metropolitan Police.



They even added a web cam image to give the impression that the victim is under surveillance. Of course, they do not actually activate your web cam even if you have it. Scammers display the same picture on every infected machine. So, don’t worry about that.



Very often, people download and install such scams voluntarily. Malware applications are usually disguised as a software upgrade. People don't know what that is and they think they need it because it looks like they do. Besides, something as simple as opening PDF file can infect computer or allow scammers to download Police Central e-crime Unit virus on your computer. Keep in mind that other software applications are vulnerable too.



Scammers exploit Java and Flash vulnerabilities to load the malicious code on targeted computers. It's very important to keep your machine updated. What is more, cyber criminals use valid software certificates and other possible methods to avoid detection and to infect as many computers as possible.

So, if you got infected with this fake Police Ukash virus, please follow the steps in the removal guide below. Sometimes, users can restart infected computers in Safe Mode. That makes the removal procedure a lot easier. Unfortunately, most of the time this ransomware comes bundled with other malware that locks down the computer completely. In such case, Live CD is the only option. We will show you how to remove Police Central e-crime Unit virus using Kaspersky Rescue Disk. Hopefully, this virus will only cost you time without taking your money too.

If you have any questions about this infection or need help removing it, please leave a comment below. Good luck!

Remove International Police Association (I.P.A.) Virus (Uninstall Guide)

Don't Copy From This Blog...

We ran across a new piece of ransomware that uses the branding of International Police Association (I.P.A.) to deceive you into paying a 'fine' to have your computer unlocked.

This infection is classified as a Trojan:Win32/LockScreen.CI. Ransomware applications from the LockScreen family have been targeting European internet users recently. However, the malicious code can be easily changed to target users in United States, Canada or any other country/region. Ransomware's characteristics change slightly depending on the IP address of the infected computer.

Currently, there are numerous reported infections in Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Spain, France, Greece, Italy, Finland, Nederland, Poland, Portugal and Sweden. It's rather surprising that they decided to skip UK and U.S., at least for now. Usually, these countries are the prime targets.



When the International Police Association (I.P.A.) virus has infected your computer, it simply prevents you from accessing The Desktop and displays a fake warning claiming that the system was locked by I.P.A because you were watching and/or distributing illegal content.

Usually, cyber criminals include some scary text about child pornography and copyrighted files. We have to admit that the fake warning is incredibly realistic. We've talked with some people about similar infections and they all admitted that they were scared to death when they saw these police warnings. Few of them even paid 'fines', usually $50 or $100.

Although, there are really nasty and sophisticated ransomware applications out there, International Police Association virus is not one of them, thankfully. It doesn't encrypt files and it doesn't make complex system modifications. The scheme is very simple: once the Trojan is executed, it determines your IP address, changes numerous system settings, creates a full screen window, loads fake warning text and then downloads all the necessary graphics from remote server. For example, if you live in Spain, this virus will load Spanish warning text and download Spain flag from a remote server. And that's it.

Most of the time, victims are urged to pay a 'fine' using a UKash voucher. Surprisingly, you can choose how much you are willing to pay; it's either 50 or 100 euros. That's kind of weird. However, this is a scam. Do not transfer any money or purchase vouchers. Please also note that UKash is a legitimate firm and is not involved in this International Police Association ransomware scam.

International Police Association (I.P.A.) virus warning in different countries:

If you have ever tried to get rid of ransomware you may have thought its darn near impossible. The good news is that International Police Association (I.P.A.) virus isn't very aggressive unless it comes bundled with other malware. Most of the time, this ransowmare allows victims to reboot their PCs in Safe Mode with Networking and download anti-malware software. Anti-malware software removes the virus and you can happily user your computer once again. But if you were 'lucky' enough to get modified version of this ransomware then it's definitely a nuisance. In such case, you will have to use Kaspersky Rescue CD or any other Live CD to remove International Police Association virus from your computer. Both removal methods are described in details below. So, fist of all, try to reboot your computer in Safe Mod and if it doesn't work then follow the alternate removal guide.

If you have any questions are need extra help removing this ransomware from your computer, please leave comments below. Good luck!
