Freshy Search is an unwanted browser add-on, categorized as a browser hijacker. This is because it changes the appearance of the default homepage, assigns the fake search.freshy.com search engine, and also prevents users from undoing these modifications. Hijacker mostly hits Google Chrome, however, can also be seen in Mozilla Firefox and Edge, on both Windows and Mac systems. The reason why many search engines promoted by hijackers are referred to as "fake" is because they are able to generate their own search results. Instead, they tend to use legitimate engines like Google, Yahoo, or Bing to show results and generate money on displayed advertisements. Even if some hijacker engines are able to do so, it may be risky to open their results due to suspicious redirects potentially hidden in them.

Based on privacy and security risks such software may create, it is important to remove it from your system. We encourage you to use our instructions below to do it.

How to remove BlueSky Ransomware and decrypt .bluesky files

0
BlueSky Ransomware is a devastating file encryptor. It restricts access to data and requests victims to pay a fee for its return. While running encryption of system-stored data, the virus also assigns the .bluesky extension to each affected sample. For instance, a file named 1.pdf will change to 1.pdf.bluesky and reset its original icon. Since then, files will be no longer accessible. To make victims pay the ransom, cybercriminals layout identical decryption instructions in both # DECRYPT FILES BLUESKY #.html and # DECRYPT FILES BLUESKY #.txt text notes, which are created after encryption. Inside, extortionists say the only case when files can be recovered is if victims purchase a special decryption key and software. They also say that any third-party attempts to decrypt files without the help of cybercriminals may result in permanent damage to data. Victims are thereafter instructed to download Tor Browser and visit the provided web link. After following that, victims will be able to see the price for decryption and additional information such as how to create a wallet and purchase cryptocurrencies as well. The decryption price is set at 0.1 BTC ≈ $2,075 and is said to double in 7 days after the ransomware attack. Cybercriminals also offer to test decryption, as victims can send one blocked file and get it decrypted for free. Ransomware developers tend to do this in order to validate their trustworthiness and boost victims' confidence in paying the ransom.
