DLL files are key elements of Windows libraries necessary for ensuring the proper operation of different programs. Such files are countless and have their own correlation with each program you use.

HARDBIT is a ransomware virus that targets Windows users to encrypt system-stored data and blackmail victims into paying a fee for decryption and non-disclosure of exfiltrated data. While rendering files inaccessible, the file-encryptor assigns some visual changes to highlight the blocked data. For instance, a file originally named 1.pdf will change to something like 1.pdf.[id-GSD557NO60].[boos@keemail.me].hardbit at the end of encryption. This newly-assigned string of symbols consists of the victim's ID, cybercriminals' e-mail address, and .hardbit extension. Immediately after the encryption process approaches its end, HARDBIT changes the desktop wallpapers and drops two files explaining decryption instructions - Help_me_for_Decrypt.hta and How To Restore Your Files.txt.

FlyTrap is a trojan infection designed to steal Facebook accounts and use them for future abuse. An authoritative security company named Zimperium researched this malware and confirmed its activity across 100+ countries with at least 10,000 users affected by it. According to reports, many have been affected by FlyTrap via a malicious application that promotes coupons, discounts, and other similar content. Clicking on such content can lead to a fake verification window demanding login credentials for a Facebook account.

The stolen accounts may thereafter be abused for scamming friends or spreading malware via malicious links or attachments. Thus, FlyTrap is a dangerous infection that may lead to massive security problems and compromise users' identities. Follow our guide below to get rid of the virus from your Android smartphone. After doing so, it is important to change passwords and notify your friends/contacts about the committed hacking.
