Trojan.Wdfload is Malwarebytes’ generic detection name for a family of adware Trojans that are also known as SearchMaster.
Trojan.Wdfload injects advertisements in search results and into websites. The advertisements are usually of the kind that regular websites will refuse: tech support scams, surveys, porn, and other dubious redirects. Trojan.Wdfload is usually installed by bundlers.
Malwarebytes protects users from Trojan.Wdfload by using real-time protection.
