Found another software publisher that bundles lots of potentially unwanted software. The publisher is called\u00a0Advertiso GmbH<\/strong>\u00a0and the file was called adobe-flash-player_setup.exe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Advertiso<\/a><\/p>\n

When I uploaded the file to VirusTotal, it came up with a 15% detection rate.<\/p>\n

\"Advertiso<\/a><\/p>\n

InstallCore<\/strong> seems to be the common detection name for the\u00a0Advertiso GmbH\u00a0<\/strong>file.<\/p>\n

When I ran the\u00a0Advertiso GmbH\u00a0<\/strong>file it offered a bunch of bundled softwares, such as Web Finder Pro<\/strong> (Site Finder Pro<\/strong>), AdvanceElite<\/strong>, AstroMenda<\/strong>, PennyBee<\/a>, etc. An in addition, it failed to install Adobe’s Flash Player, with the error “Installation encountered errors<\/strong>“:<\/p>\n

\"adobe<\/a><\/p>\n

Hope this helped figure out what the\u00a0Advertiso GmbH<\/strong> installer will do to your system.<\/p>\n

If you want to download the Flash Player<\/strong>, please do so from Adobe’s official web site:<\/p>\n

Did you also find a file from\u00a0Advertiso GmbH<\/strong>? What kind of download was it? Was it also detected by the anti-virus programs at VirusTotal? Please share in the comments below?<\/p>\n

Update 2015-09-10: Found another download signed by Advertiso<\/strong> called chrome_download.exe<\/a>. The detection rate for that file is 20%:<\/p>\n
