How did I get infected with Memberacy?
The Memberacy extension is spread via trickery. The scheme is quite simple, actually. You get redirected to a questionable website. There, a message prevents you from leaving. It states that you should install software in order to leave, or that some changes won’t be saved if you close the page. You are urged to click on some button. Do not interact with such pages. Use your Task manager to close your browser and start a new session. Another popular malware distribution method is the bundling technique. Developers attach extra apps to the installation files of many popular programs. When you start an installation, opt for the Advanced option in the Setup Wizard. Under it, you will be given the opportunity to deselect all unwanted apps. Take your time to read the Terms and Conditions/EULA. If you spot anything out of the ordinary, abort the installation immediately. The Memberacy PUP tricked you once. Learn your lessons. Don’t let other malware infect your PC. Always do your due diligence. Keeping a trustworthy anti-virus app on board is also a good idea.
