How does the malware get installed on your computer?
A pop-up link will alert the user that their FileZilla application is out-of-date and will direct the user to the website for filezilla-project.org. The download from this link delivers a malicious bundle installation wrapper, a program used to execute one or more installation program. The wrapper contains malware such as fusioncore, installcore, Eldorado, PUP, and PUA. Many of these may not be detected by anti-virus software.
