Danger level 7
Type: Adware

CommonName

CommonName is a clandestine adware applciation whose malignant components can be hidden from removal because of the injected rootkit components. The malicious program uses such security backdoors as spam email attachments, malvertisement, black hat Seo scams and bundled downloads to infiltrate its high-risk components. The only way to delete CommonName from your computer is to have each and every single one of these malignant files removed from the computer. Some of the more notable of them are ehcffwk.exe, kwffche.exe, winik.sys, zygdgwrn.exe, but what you really should look out for is winnet.exe.

The malicious winnet.exe is a truly knavish component, which enables the adware to affect Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP systems. The malicious element can interject the regular Windows Registry operations, add malignant codes to system’s autostart programs, delete and add values, communicate with remote servers and even modify Windows Security Policies. These symptoms are meant to paralyze you from having CommonName deleted; however, they also serve a purpose of making your Windows OS more vulnerable to additional malware, like cnbabe.dll. This dynamic link library file is a browser helper object (BHO), which allows schemers to spy on your browsing sessions, record your history/favorite lists and even steal login details. All of this could be used to present malevolent advertisements, which could be hiding automatic malware setup installations, or access your personal accounts that could be used to spread the infection to other systems.

You should take care of CommonName removal the minute you notice unauthorized web page redirections, slower Internet connection and an avalanche of attractive, but fake, online advertisements. If you know how to deal with manual infection’s removal, proceed immediately, and if you are looking for an alternative – download automatic removal tools.
