Cybercriminals seem to be discovering new things all the time tricks για να προσεγγίσουν τους υπολογιστές μας, καθώς σε μία από τις τελευταίες προσπάθειές τους δημιούργησαν ένα tool which claims to warn you if there is an outbreak of the disease Ebola in a nearby area. It is now known that the "signs" of the internet, use every big news to deceive the unsuspecting users. We would not be impressed to see a malicious campaign that uses the name of Amphipolis.
In order to benefit from such a "service", users have to download and install an application on their computer.
Right now the malicious toolbar exists in ebolawarnings (dot) com. The exe file that suggests you download the site is identified as malicious on 18 from 53 antivirus engines working with VirusTotal, although initially its detection was minimal.

After the user installs the program and forcefully installs the minor programs, the program browsing your (browser) is corrupted in many ways, such as changing your browser, loading affiliate websites when you open a new browser tab, or a page that offers even more programs to download.
In addition, system performance is visibly affected by unwanted program shortcuts added to your system desktop.
