If you are interested in deleting Mr403Forbidden Ransomware, the chances are that your operating system was infected with this malicious threat. Once it is in, it surreptitiously encrypts all kinds of files before it introduces you to a ransom note. While many ransomware infections use text files, background images, and screen-locking windows to display information, this threat uses a simple window that can be closed at any point. At the top of the window, you find the “File Anda Terkunci!!!” warning, which is Indonesian for “your file is locked.” Were you introduced to this suspicious message? If you were, the first thing we recommend doing is checking if your files were encrypted. When Anti-Spyware-101.com research team was analyzing this threat, it was not functioning properly – most likely due to the C&C server being down – and so we could not analyze the encryption. Hence, we are yet to confirm that this infection encrypts files. Overall, if it does, you need to be very mindful of what you do before you remove the malicious Mr403Forbidden Ransomware from your operating system. Read more »

BrainLag Ransomware is one of the newest HiddenTear-based ransomware infections. Our malware analysts suspect that it is still in development because it does not act like typical ransomware infections do. In other words, although it encrypts personal files it finds stored on the system after the successful entrance, it does not demand money. This also means that it is impossible to purchase the decryption tool from cyber criminals. Without a doubt, cyber criminals determined to extract money from users might take over this infection, update it, and start disseminating it actively one day. There is basically no doubt that this new updated version of BrainLag Ransomware will demand a ransom. You are still not allowed to send cyber criminals money in this case. You are expected to perform only one activity – the full removal of the ransomware infection. It would be a sin to keep ransomware active on the system because it might be launched again accidentally and encrypt files once again. You will find more about the BrainLag Ransomware removal if you read this report till the very end. Read more »

Freshdesk Ransomware is a newly discovered ransomware-type application that is hell-bent on extracting money from you. For this purpose, it was configured to encrypt your files and then demand that you pay a ransom for a decryption tool.

Therefore, we advocate for removing this program. Read more »
