Necromunda: Gang Skirmish is a turn-based strategy game in which you run a gang and battle for territory control with the other factions. I'll consider your suggestion about consulting a removal specialist. My daughter has shown herself to be a lot more tech savvy than I expected! OpenDNS is a stop gap but it's easy to get around it. For the router, I'm using Eero and they claim that they are working on a blacklist function to deliver later this year, but I'm getting tired of waiting so I may end up dropping and getting something with better security features or adding Circle to the mix. Regarding the modem, I'll check into them. I haven't noticed her having one, but doesn't hurt to keep an eye out.
#HOLA VPN VIRUS UPDATE#
When I check her devices I look at the history to see if anything was installed and I jump into "Developer Mode" to do an update to see if it brings anything down from her syned profile. And I did in fact have to untangle it from Google sync (it kept reinstalling itself) too which was a pain but eventually I made sure it was removed from her profile. The browser add on (Chrome) is what she installed at first and then later their phone app (Android). Thank you Exile, I appreciate the suggestions. I hope this helps, and if there is anything else we might assist with please let us know. You don't have to do so of course, and if you'd rather continue in this thread to see if anyone else has any ideas you are certainly welcome to do so.
#HOLA VPN VIRUS WINDOWS#
In the meantime, you could try blocking access to the VPN's servers/login page through the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security or by blacklisting them through your router or modem if it allows it (some do, some don't, depending on the features of the firmware/software installed on the router/modem).īeyond that, if you suspect the system might be infected or simply want a set of experienced and knowledgeable eyes to take a look and see if they might be able to determine the source of the connections for you, please follow the instructions in this topic then create a new topic in our malware removal area by clicking here and a malware removal specialist will guide you in checking and cleaning your system of any threats and hopefully hunting down and stopping the source of the VPN connections. I'm sure there are other ways around it as well, those are just a couple I thought of off the top of my head.
#HOLA VPN VIRUS INSTALL#
Additionally, if she uses a portable build of any browser such any of those that are based on Chromium (such as SRWare Iron), she could keep it on a flash drive with the extension/addon for the VPN installed enabling her to use it without having to install anything on the system itself. Also keep in mind that if your daughter uses Google Sync in Chrome, she could easily sign in to Chrome to get her preferred extensions installed automatically, then sign out to instantly remove them. I just took a look at their site and apparently they offer not only a desktop application, but also browser addons/extensions for most web browsers so you might check the addons/extensions of any installed browsers.
I'm at a bit of a loss on what to do next and hoping a kind soul may be able to give me a leg up? I tried Wireshark to do some DNS analysis but unfortunately my laptop (Windows) does not have the capability to do a proper promiscuous mode to get DNS requests from all the devices on the network. Looking back over the logs I see on one particular day lots of requests (blocked) to resolve, , and a lot of zagent#. (where # are different numbers.) Other days (but not everyday) I see resolution being requested. I've got no idea where this is coming from because I cannot find Hola installed anywhere on the laptops or phones in our house. OpenDNS is doing its job blocking the sites, but recently I got a warning on the OpenDNS dashboard "Malware/Botnet Activity Detected In Last 30 Days". I removed it and started using OpenDNS as a stop gap to block access for proxy/economizers and some specific sites while looking for other security measures to install. Long story short, my daughter installed Hola VPN earlier this year to get around some blocks on her school network and in our home network. Hi - I'm starting here because I'm not sure what forum to start with and this seems to be the most general.
