How did I get infected with?

Trojans are quite masterful at finding a way into your system. They slyly infiltrate your system via trickery and finesse and then proceed to corrupt it. They are, in fact, so sly and subtle that, at first, you aren’t even aware of their existence. Not until the infection chooses to reveal itself. As for ‘how’, the Trojan manages to invade your system, and without you knowing it no less, there are a few methods the infection typically turns to. It usually hitches a ride with freeware or hides behind corrupted links or sites. It can also hide behind a fake front, like a Java or an Adobe Flash Player update, and slither in undetected as you think you’re just updating your PC. However, the most common means of invasion, Trojans resort to when sneaking into your computer includes spam emails. If you receive an email, and you don’t know the sender, or it seems suspicious, delete it at once! Better yet, don’t open it at all. And, above all, do NOT open or download the attachment, if it contains one. Such actions often result in unwanted infections getting into your PC. To keep your system, Trojan=-free and not face the HTML/ScrInject.B.Gen menace, try to be more vigilant. Carelessness will not lead to anything good. Be more thorough, always do your due diligence, and don’t give into distraction, haste, and gullibility.

Why is this dangerous?

HTML/ScrInject.B.Gen will quickly turn into the bane of your browsing experience. It will plague your online activities by continuously interrupting them. Let’s elaborate. Trojans, like the once currently found on your PC, are free to install any malware they so wish. Adware, browser hijackers, scareware, ransomware, etc. Anything they feel like letting in, they can allow into your system. They don’t have to inform you or ask permission. They can just do it. So, it won’t take long before you turn on your computer, and find it overrun with all kinds of hazardous infections. Your system is fair game. It’s more than likely that soon after HTML/ScrInject.B.Gen settles on your PC, you’ll start to experience the immense annoyance of ever-flowing waterfalls of pop-up ads every time you try to go online. And, not just that. The intrusions don’t end there. It’s safe to assume that hijackers will also be a part of the mix, so expect endless redirects, as well. And, if that’s all you get stuck with, consider yourself lucky. It can be much worse. And, if you continue idly standing by as the Trojan wreaks havoc, it will. Your situation may even escalate to the point of no return, with you face to face with The Blue Screen of Death. That’s hardly a desirable outcome. Why not avoid it? Can you think of a single reason HTML/ScrInject.B.Gen is worth keeping? We’ll assume ‘No.’ Do you know why? Because there is none! That’s a nasty, meddling, invasive, highly harmful Trojan infection, which you should remove from your system immediately! Don’t delay! There isn’t a way to stress this enough: the more you prolong the infection’s stay, the worse your predicament will get! Do yourself a favor, and get rid of HTML/ScrInject.B.Gen at once. Your future self will surely be grateful for it.
