The parasite’s shenanigans don’t stop here, though. As mentioned, Trojans are immensely problematic. Sync-eu.exe.bid might also alter your default browser settings.

How did I get infected with?

Sync-eu.exe.bid uses some of the oldest methods out there. Number one technique involves spam emails and messages. Yes, this is highly unoriginal. It is super efficient, though. There might be a potential intruder hiding in some perfectly legitimate-looking email. Hackers usually use this tactic to spread ransomware and Trojans online. All you need to do in order to infect your PC is open a random email. Voila. You might accidentally download a whole bouquet of infections. We assume you aren’t actively trying to cause yourself a headache. Thus, delete what you don’t trust. Spam email-attachments and messages from unknown senders are usually harmful. Parasites also travel the Web via fake software updates, exploit kits and third-party pop-ups. Stay away from unverified websites and illegitimate torrents as well. Trojans could also get attached to a freeware or shareware bundle. That is why we recommend that you opt for the Advanced or Custom option in the Setup Wizard. If you spot a sneaky “bonus” program in the bundle, deselect it. Simple as that. The bonus could be a vicious infection such as a Trojan horse.

Why is this dangerous?

You don’t have a single reason to procrastinate right now. On the other hand, you have plenty of reasons to take measures ASAP. The sync-eu.exe.bid virus will keep on harassing you till the very moment it gets deleted. It also slows down your PC speed to a crawl. Don’t get surprised when your device starts freezing and/or crashing on a daily basis. That is one of the many consequences of the Trojan’s presence. As mentioned, this program makes modifications in your system registry. It also collects private data (IP addresses, browsing history, usernames, passwords, email addresses). However, the Trojan horse could get to some much more sensitive information. For instance, your bank account. Before you even know it, this pest may involve you in some financial fraud or identity theft. Hackers might even get remote control over your computer.
