Table of Contents
What Is PUP.Onestats?
PUP.Onestats is a type of malware that is classified as a potentially unwanted program. This means that while it may not be as malicious as other types of malware, such as viruses or Trojans, it can still cause problems for your computer and compromise your personal data. PUPs are often installed unintentionally by users, usually as a result of downloading and installing freeware or shareware programs that bundle additional software.
How PUP.Onestats Operates
PUP.Onestats operates by installing itself on your computer and then proceeding to collect data about your browsing habits, search history, and other online activities. This data can be used for a variety of purposes, including targeted advertising and marketing. In some cases, PUPs can also be used to install additional malware or unwanted programs on your computer, which can further compromise your security and performance.
PUPs like PUP.Onestats can be particularly problematic because they often use deceptive tactics to install themselves on your computer. They may pretend to be legitimate programs or claim to offer useful functions, but in reality, they are designed to benefit the creators at the expense of the user.
Symptoms of Infection
If your computer is infected with PUP.Onestats, you may notice a range of symptoms, including slow performance, unwanted pop-ups and advertisements, and changes to your browser settings. You may also notice that your computer is taking longer to start up or shut down, or that certain programs are not functioning properly. In some cases, you may not notice any symptoms at all, which is why it's essential to regularly scan your computer for malware and other threats.
- Unwanted pop-ups and advertisements
- Changes to browser settings, such as a new homepage or default search engine
- Slow performance or freezing
- Unexplained changes to system settings or files
How to Remove PUP.Onestats
- Boot your computer in Safe Mode with Networking to prevent PUP.Onestats from loading and to give you more control over the removal process
- Use a reputable anti-malware tool, such as SpyHunter, to perform a full scan of your computer and detect any malware or other threats
- Uninstall any suspicious programs or applications that may be related to PUP.Onestats
- Reset your browser settings to their default values, including Chrome, Firefox, and Edge
- Reboot your computer and perform another scan to ensure that the threat has been fully removed
Conclusion
Removing PUP.Onestats from your computer is an essential step in protecting your security and performance. By following the steps outlined above, you can help to ensure that your computer is free from this and other malware threats. It's also important to take steps to prevent future infections, such as being cautious when downloading and installing software, avoiding suspicious links and emails, and regularly scanning your computer for malware. By taking these precautions, you can help to keep your computer safe and secure.

Digital Signatures
Digital Signatures
This section lists digital signatures that are attached to samples within this family. When analyzing and verifying digital signatures, it is important to confirm that the signature’s root authority is a well-known and trustworthy entity and that the status of the signature is good. Malware is often signed with non-trustworthy “Self Signed” digital signatures (which can be easily created by a malware author with no verification). Malware may also be signed by legitimate signatures that have an invalid status, and by signatures from questionable root authorities with fake or misleading “Signer” names.| Signer | Root | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Leonid Kokarev | Sectigo RSA Code Signing CA | Self Signed |
| Leonid Kokarev | USERTrust RSA Certification Authority | Root Not Trusted |
Block Information

Similar Families
Similar Families
This section lists other families that share similarities with this family, based on EnigmaSoft’s analysis. Many malware families are created from the same malware toolkits and use the same packing and encryption techniques but uniquely extend functionality. Similar families may also share source code, attributes, icons, subcomponents, compromised and/or invalid digital signatures, and network characteristics. Researchers leverage these similarities to rapidly and effectively triage file samples and extend malware detection rules.- MSIL.Agent.DRJ
