‘An intruder named News.Net has suddenly popped up on my machine. It appears in start-up and opens a window with supposed news headlines from around the world.
There is no remove option in the Windows 8 control panel but I have disabled it in start-up; it remains to seen if this works. Malawarebytes does not detect it.
It carries advertising and definitely looks suspicious. I want it off my system.’- quote from one of its victims.
