  New Delhi: If you also use Google Chrome, Firefox or any other web browser then be careful.  Microsoft has issued a warning about this.  The company has said that these web newsletters have come with malware, which has increased a lot.

  This is malware
 This malware named Adrozek has come from May this year and in August, it has attacked more than 30 thousand devices almost daily.  People have tracked around 159 unique domains this year, hosting an average of 17300 unique cities.

 
  The ultimate objective of the new agriculture campaign is to take users to the relevant page by serving marketing-inclusive advertising on search results.  However, Signalizer settings are turned on to allow children to add the malicious language extension additions and advertisements in webpages.

  The Microsoft 365 Defender research team wrote in a blog post that although cybercrimes that abused the new programming were not new, the campaign used a piece of domestic that is affecting many exhibitors.  Also extends website credentials that can bring additional risk to users.

 
  What makes Adrozek distinct from the preservation of earlier agriculture.  It installs on drive-by download devices in which the installer takes a standard format of the filename setup_.exe.  When running this file, the installer leaves an .exe file with an energy file name in the temporary folder, which in turn leaves the main payload in the program file fork.  This payload seems like a valid aud-related software.

  The Microsoft team specifically noted this on Google Chrome.  It usually modifies the default "Chrome Media Router" extension.  Likewise, on Microsoft Edge and Yandex browsers it uses IDs for valid extensions, such as Radioplayer.
