SuperSearch is a browser hijacker that replaces your default homepage with the super-search.org address. This new URL address will therefore function as the main search engine that generates ostensibly better results. Do not mistake it with adware called by the same name of SuperSearch. They are different and have no correlation with each other apart from their questionable trustworthiness. Although super-search.org can generate its own search queries, they are no better or faster than those provided by legitimate engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo, or others. This instantly says there is no real value in using super-search.org. On the contrary, the browser hijacker can slow down your PC due to poor optimization and gather sensitive data like passwords, IP-addresses, or geolocations, which might put your privacy at quite a huge risk. If you spotted that super-search.org or any other changes have been assigned to your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, etc.), be sure they are suspicious and should be removed.

Captcha-smart.top is a viral site with spam and advertising, which displays annoying notifications in browsers. This can happen due to infection with a virus that penetrates your computer along with downloaded files and works quietly in the background. Or users manually granted Captcha-smart.top access to the settings and allowed it to create push-notifications. While surfing the Internet or even when browsers are closed users may receive unwanted ads, news, promotions in the right-bottom corner of the desktop. Noticing these signs of infection, the user launches an anti-virus scan. If you use a good antivirus, it will find and remove the virus itself, but it will not touch the settings specified in browsers. Those can be fixed by manual manipulations or using special tools. The guide below will assist you in all necessary steps to remove Captcha-smart.top ads and notifications and virus removal.

CommonRansom is classified as a ransomware virus that encrypts data stored on infected devices to demand payment for its return. This version was discovered by a malware researcher named Michael Gillepsie. Just like many ransomware infections, CommonRansom assigns its own extension to highlight the blocked data. All data that got encrypted by CommonRansom will change like this file here - 1.pdf > 1.pdf.[old@nuke.africa].CommonRansom. After this, one more thing left to initiate by the virus is ransom note creation. The name of the note is DECRYPTING.txt and it is put to each folder with infected files. This note says victims have 12 hours ahead to request data decryption, otherwise, there will be no chance to return it anymore. There is also a template that should be used when contacting cybercriminals by their e-mail address. The attached template is actually very suspicious since it requests victims to write their PC RDP port, a username along with password used to log into the system, and the time when you paid 0.1 BTC to the outlined crypto address.

Ethernet connection established through cable is usually considered to be way better than Wi-fi. It helps users achieve higher speed and better stability to run online activities. Unfortunately, some users experience an error stating that Ethernet Network cannot be identified. This problem becomes a real hiccup preventing people from using the Internet. Sometimes the issue is solved after running basic steps like rebooting a router or reconnecting the cable. However, there are also some broader reasons causing the error. This is what our guide will be all about.

Gyjeb is a ransomware virus that runs data encryption to extort money from victims. It looks very similar to Keq4p Ransomware, which means they are likely to come from the same malware family. Just like Keq4p, Gyjeb Ransomware assigns a random string of senseless symbols along with its own .gyjeb extension. To illustrate, a file like "1.pdf" will change its look to something like 1.pdf.wKkIx8yQ03RCwLLXT41R9CxyHdGsu_T02yFnRHcpcLj_xxr1h8pEl480.gyjeb and reset its original icon. After all files end up edited this way, the virus creates a text note called nTLA_HOW_TO_DECRYPT.txt which entails decryption instructions. You can familiarize yourself with this note in the screenshot below.

Keq4p is a ransomware infection that encrypts personal data using cryptographic algorithms. These algorithms ensure strong data protection from attempts to decrypt it. Files attacked by ransomware are usually photos, videos, music, documents, and other types of data that could entail some value. Most file-encryptors change all the affected files by assigning their own extension. Keq4p does exactly the same, but also attaches a random string of symbols. For instance, a file like 1.pdf will change to something like 1.pdfT112tM5obZYOoP4QFkev4kSFA1OPjfHsqNza12hxEMj_uCNVPRWni8s0.keq4p or similar. The assigned string is totally random and has no real purpose. Along with visual changes, Keq4p closes its encryption process with the creation of zB6F_HOW_TO_DECRYPT.txt, a text file containing ransom instructions. You can take a closer look at what it contains in the following screenshot.

Still Sherpa is considered to be an unwanted browser extension that changes browser settings to generate promotional ads. Software like this is usually classified as adware. It creates excessive amounts of ads stacked on top of each other across various websites. In other words, after this unwanted piece gets installed in a browser, the entire search session will be accompanied by intrusive ads preventing users from adequate usage. Even legitimate or ad-free websites will be victimized by the ads of Still Sherpa as well. On the initial basis, Still Sherpa is promoted as a tool for finding content on the Internet. However, it is hard to find any significant value in it. Apart from generating untrustworthy banners and ads, Still Sherpa may also be able to spy on browsing activity. This means its developers may gather your data (e.g. passwords, IP-addresses, geolocations, etc.) for financial purposes. In addition to that, there is a chance Still Sherpa was accidentally installed after some unwanted program infected your system. In this case, deleting the unwanted extension may not be enough for complete removal. Thus, we advise you to follow our guide below and learn proper ways of deleting Still Sherpa from your computer completely.

Update errors are no black sheep, but rather a norm to most Windows users. One who has been using Windows for a pretty long time has once stumbled into update errors preventing users from getting new patches and fixes. Unfortunately, just like any operating system, Windows may lose stability in certain segments including updates. Despite there has been a huge number of errors already discussed on our blog, the end to them is hardly seen on the horizon. This time around we are looking at 0x80092004, another error code that causes update problems. In fact, this specific error has been around since Windows 7 to 10 whilst installing KB4474419, KB4512506, KB4512486, KB4340557, KB4340558, and other patches as well. Error 0x80092004 can also be seen by the name of CRYPT_E_NOT_FOUND: Cannot find object or property, which basically means Windows failed to locate cryptographic value and denied an update eventually. Usually, these errors have common reasons for their appearance - corrupted/missing files, and problems with updates themselves. Depending on each individual case, the reasons may vary as well. This is why the best way to fix 0x80092004 is to try each solution we mentioned below. There are quite a few, but they will not take too much time to complete if followed carefully. Make sure to observe them down below.
