If you do not want to face malware, you need to secure your Windows operating system. If you do not take care of it, Nesa Ransomware is one of the threats you could face and, arguably, it is one of the worst infections you could face. That is because its main function is to encrypt your files, after which, you will not be able to read any of them. Which files are encrypted depends on what kinds of files they are and where they are stored. Unfortunately, the threat is likely to corrupt documents, pictures, and all other files that you consider to be personal and irreplaceable. Perhaps you have backups of your personal files? If they are stored outside of the infected machine (e.g., cloud storage), you should have no trouble replacing the corrupted files, but you should delete Nesa Ransomware and secure your operating system before you take care of that. If you need help with the removal and the protection, we’ve got you covered. Read more »

Meds Ransomware belongs to Stop Ransomware family as it is almost identical to the mentioned threat. It encrypts pictures, photos, and other personal files of the victim. Then it should suggest purchasing decryption tools from the malware’s developers. Same as many malicious applications from the Stop Ransomware family, Meds Ransomware asks to pay $490 in 72 hours or $980 if the given time runs out. Needless to say, we do not recommend rushing into it. There is a possibility you could get scammed, which means you should first consider if you are prepared to lose the mentioned sum should anything go wrong. If you are not, we advise not to pay the ransom. Also, we believe users should erase Meds Ransomware since it can restart with Windows, which means there is a chance it could encipher new data after each system restart. To prevent this, you could erase the threat with the instructions located below or with a chosen antimalware tool. Read more »

When PyLock Ransomware encrypts your personal files, the “.locked” extension is added to their names to make sure that you can identify the corrupted ones right away. The attackers behind the malicious threat do not want to hide what they have done because they hope that the damage is big enough to convince you that you need their help. Nearly 200 different types of files can be corrupted by this malicious infection, and that includes images, documents, videos, and other files that you might have no way of replacing. The threat does not corrupt system files because it needs the system to run smoothly so that the attackers could make their demands clear and that the victims would understand what is expected of them. If the system was crashing, the victims would not be able to do what the attackers want. Unfortunately, if your files cannot be replaced, you might be willing to obey the demands of these attackers. That is a bad decision, and we recommend focusing on the removal of the threat. Do you know how to delete PyLock Ransomware? Read more »

Topinambour is a Trojan from hackers known as Turla. It is a group of Russian speaking cybercriminals that usually attack systems of government institutions. Therefore, it is unlikely that this new malicious application could be targeted at regular home users, although we cannot be one hundred percent sure. In this text, we describe how the malware could put a user’s computer and privacy at risk, how it could enter a system, and most importantly, how to eliminate Topinambour. What we like to state from the start is that we cannot guarantee the steps provided in the deletion section will help you delete the malicious application manually. That is because the threat could have other versions that might work differently. For more information, we invite you to read the rest of our article. Read more »

You might think that your Windows operating system is protected efficiently, but if GoBot2 finds a way in, it can bypass security systems to conceal itself and run in the shadows. If the threat remains undetected, the attackers controlling it from a remote location can do a great deal of damage. For one, they can record sensitive information and login passwords and usernames to hijack your virtual accounts and impersonate you. Second, they can spread malware to other systems from your accounts. Finally, it can drop new infections to perform other malicious actions. Needless to say, it is best if you delete GoBot2 from your operating system, and your virtual security depends on how fast you can figure out how to do it. In the last section of the report, we talk about the removal of this malware in detail, but if you want to learn more about how this clandestine Trojan spreads and works, we suggest that you read from the beginning. Note that the comments section is open, and all questions are welcome. Read more »
