What does the notification with Win32/Injector.CXX detection mean?

The Win32/Injector.CXX detection you can see in the lower right corner is shown to you by Microsoft Defender. That anti-malware application is pretty good at scanning, but prone to be mainly unstable. It is unprotected to malware invasions, it has a glitchy interface and problematic malware clearing capabilities. For this reason, the pop-up which states concerning the Injector is simply a notification that Defender has found it. To remove it, you will likely need to make use of a separate anti-malware program.

Microsoft Defender: “Win32/Injector.CXX”

The exact Win32/Injector.CXX infection is a really nasty thing. It is present into your computer disguised as a part of something benevolent, or as a piece of the app you downloaded at a forum. Then, it makes all possible steps to weaken your system. At the end of this “party”, it injects other malicious things – ones which are wanted by crooks who manage this virus. Hence, it is impossible to predict the effects from Injector actions. And the unpredictability is one of the baddest things when it comes to malware. That’s why it is rather not to choose at all, and don’t give it even a single chance to complete its task.

Is Win32/Injector.CXX dangerous?

As I have mentioned , non-harmful malware does not exist. And Win32/Injector.CXX is not an exception. This malware changes the system setups, modifies the Group Policies and registry. All of these things are vital for correct system functioning, even when we are not talking about system safety. Therefore, the virus which Injector contains, or which it will inject after some time, will squeeze out maximum profit from you. Crooks can steal your personal data, and then sell it at the black market. Using adware and browser hijacker functions, embedded in Win32/Injector.CXX virus, they can make profit by showing you the banners. Each view gives them a penny, but 100 views per day = $1. 1000 victims who watch 100 banners per day – $1000. Easy math, but sad conclusions. It is a bad choice to be a donkey for crooks.

How did I get this virus?

And Win32/Injector.CXX is simply among them.
