Hi there! Just wanted to give you the heads up on files digitally signed by Andrey Hmelnikov.

It is also possible to check a digital signature by looking at a file’s properties. Here’s a screenshot of the Andrey Hmelnikov certificate. He’s located in Russia.

So, what does the anti-virus programs say about the Andrey Hmelnikov file? No problem, I just uploaded the file to VirusTotal and it turned out that many of the anti-virus programs detects the Andrey Hmelnikov file, with names such as Gen:Variant.Adware.Kazy, and MultiPlug.

To see more in details what changes the Andrey Hmelnikov file would do on a user’s computer I decided to run the file on my lab machine. The installer bundled some additional software such as GoSave and YoutubeAdBlocke.

Did you also find an Andrey Hmelnikov file? Do you remember the download link? Please post it in the comments below and I’ll upload it to VirusTotal to see if that one is also detected.

Thank you for reading.
