The NJax software by NinjaSoft LLC. is promoted as a food supplement manager for users that exercise regularly. The NJax software is supported by marketers that aim to sell vitamins, proteins and fitness equipment. Unfortunately, the NJax application is classified as adware because it may use aggressive marketing strategies to generate revenue for its developers and earn a profit for advertisers. The NJax adware may be detected as PUA.Win32.Njax.81, Win32/Adware.BrAppWare.A and PUA.BrAppWare. Security analysts note that the NJax adware may travel in the company of badware like BR Media Player and run as a system service in the Windows Task Manager. The NJax adware may make modifications to the DNS settings of infected PC users and reroute their Web traffic to untrusted servers that are under the control of unlicensed marketers. Moreover, the NJax adware may load corrupted content in your browser that may include obsolete SSL certificate.
The ads by the NJax adware may be presented to you as pop-up windows and banners while you are surfing the Internet. You may see floating ad boxes, coupons, and discounts from less-reputable e-commerce portals when you visit established online stores like Amazon, Best Buy and eBay. The NJax adware may use files like ssleay32.dll, libeay32.dll, nfapi.dll and protocolfilters.dll to maintain its functionality, and show advertisements via iFrames on your screen. Additionally, the NJax adware may introduce a Web filter to your PC and install it in the System32 folder. The NJax adware may use a module called mosfilterdrv.sys to limit your Internet access, and you may not be able to load pages correctly. The NJax adware may connect to the 192.99.126.55 and 167.114.34.238 IP addresses to download marketing materials for offline display. However, those IP addresses are infection sources for the Sality and Wepiall malware, and you need to remove the NJax as soon as possible. You should consider using a renowned anti-malware instrument to delete the binary associated with the NJax adware safely.
