Roghe is a ransomware virus targeting personal data of victims. After the malware infects a targeted system, it starts encryption of potentially important files making them inaccessible until a decryption key is retrieved. During the encryption process, Roghe Ransomware assigns the .enc extension to infected files. For instance, a file like 1.pdf will turn to 1.pdf.enc and so forth with other affected files. Once all files become enciphered, the virus changes the desktop wallpapers and force-opens a pop-up window that features decryption guidelines. The text featured on newly-assigned wallpapers lets users know they have been infected and encourages them to follow instructions from the opened pop-up window. In addition, it also features a QR code leading to more information about the malware. The "Roghe Decryptor" window says victims have 15 minutes to retrieve the key and paste it for unlocking access to files - otherwise, the encrypted files will be deleted forever. It also says that within 20 minutes operating system will be inaccessible, essentially becoming locked.

New wave of STOP Ransomware infection continues with Qowd Ransomware, that appends .qowd extensions. STOP Ransomware was first detected in 2018 and has since evolved into one of the most prevalent types of ransomware. Those ".qowd" extensions are added to encrypted files in the end of February 2023. This tricky virus uses the AES encryption algorithm to encode users' important information. As a rule, Qowd Ransomware attacks photos, videos, and documents - data, that people value. The malware developers extort ransom and promise to provide a decryption key in return. Full decryption of lost data is possible in a minority of cases, if an offline encryption key was used, otherwise, use instructions on the page to recover enciphered files. The ransomware also creates a ransom note (_readme.txt) that informs the victim about the attack and demands payment in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies in exchange for the decryption key.

Fastbestcaptcha.top appears to be a potentially malicious website associated with online scams and phishing attempts.

Search.tablicious.com is a dubious domain that can be promoted by some unwanted extension or program installed on your PC. Software that changes browser settings to install new search engines, tabs, homepages, and other modifications is usually categorized as browser hijackers. In most cases, search engines promoted by hijackers are fake and unable to generate their own results. Instead, they are used as intermediary pages and eventually lead to legitimate search portals like Yahoo, Bing, Google, or others. search.tablicious.com is no different - it has shown to redirect users to Bing. Such redirection schemes are designed to help cybercriminals generate fake traffic and earn commissioned money on it.

In this guide, we will cover a number of ways to update graphics drivers (and other drivers) on Windows 11 – both manually and automatically with the help of third-party software like Driver Booster. Keeping drivers updated is a crucial task that should be on the list of each user working on any Windows version. Graphics drivers, which are especially important for ensuring better and flawless performance in video games, thus deserve a significant reason for getting updated. Although our guide is dedicated specifically to updating graphics drivers, some presented instructions can be equally used for keeping other drivers up-to-date as well. The guidelines are also quite similar to other Windows versions with only slight differences, so feel free to use them there as well. With that said, let's explore the alternatives to update your drivers down below.

Such dubious techniques are very annoying. Besides, such websites may promote low-quality content and products, adult content or lead to malicious web resources. Generally, Captchaforcaptcha.top just creates small record in browser permission settings to allow notifications. Users usually do it with their own hands unknowingly or occasionally, because landing pages of Captchaforcaptcha.top try trick victims to make them allow it.

Iotr Ransomware (sometimes called STOP Ransomware or DjVu Ransomware) is a wide-spread encryption virus, that first appeared in December 2017. Since then, lots of technical and design changes took place, and a few generations of malware changed. Ransomware uses the AES-256 (CFB-mode) encryption algorithm to encode user's files, and after this last version (appeared in the end of February 2023) appends .iotr extensions. After encryption, virus creates a text file _readme.txt, which is called "ransom note", where hackers disclose ransom amount, contact information, and instructions to pay it. STOP Ransomware with .iotr file extensions use following e-mails: support@freshmail.top and datarestorehelp@airmail.cc, just like dozens of its predecessors.

Kangaroo is a ransomware infection released by developers behind earlier file-encryptors, such as Apocalypse, Fabiansomware, and Esmeralda. Although this file-encryptor was actively circulating in 2021, some users may still end up penetrated by it these days. The purpose of malware within this category is to encrypt potentially important data and extort money for decryption from victims. The feature that makes Kangaroo stand out among other common ransomware infections is that it configures registry values to display a ransom message prior to entering the Windows log-in screen. Immediately after logging into the system, it also displays a fake screen with the same ransom message but this time with a dedicated field for inserting a password to unlock it. During encryption, Kangaroo also assigns the .crypted_file extension and creates identical ransom messages in form of text notes. Such text notes get created additionally to each encrypted file and are named based on the post-encryption file's name (like here 1.pdf.crypted_file.Instructions_Data_Recovery.txt).
