Haters Ransomware is a program similar to FuckTheSystem Ransomware. Both of them probably come from the same creators and are equally dangerous, so you should remove them. Like its counterpart, Haters Ransomware was designed to encrypt your personal files. However, it does not drop a ransom note or ask you to pay money. It just encrypts your files and leaves them like that. The good news is that the developers have made a grave error of including the decryption key in the source code. The key is included in this article, so if your PC has become infected with this ransomware, you might want to read this article. Read more »

The files encrypted by the malicious Frozrlock Ransomware can be very hard to identify because they are not marked with a unique extension, which is what usually happens when ransomware encrypts files. Because of that, the only way to know which files were corrupted by this threat is by trying to open every single file. Of course, the chances are that every single file on your computer – except Windows elements and files in %WINDIR%f – was encrypted. This malicious threat, of course, targets documents, media files, and photos first, but it can also corrupt the files of downloaded applications. Due to this, you might find that you can no longer use your browser and other apps. While you can restore your web browser, restoring personal files might be more complicated. Hopefully, these files are backed up; otherwise, they might be lost for good. Continue reading to learn all about the encryption of your files, as well as how to delete Frozrlock Ransomware (also known as FileFrozr Ransomware). Read more »

Failedaccess Ransomware is a dangerous file-encrypting application that was named accordingly to the extension, which is added to the threat’s damaged files. The strangest part is that the malware’s creators ask to pay some money and do not even specify the account where the money should be transferred. Therefore, it seems it is impossible to purchase the offered decryption tool. Of course, even if the infection provided payment details, we would still advise against it as there is always a possibility you could end up losing the invested money for nothing. Given the circumstances, there is nothing left to do but to eliminate Failedaccess Ransomware and start afresh. If you continue reading the article, we will tell you more about the malicious program, and below the text, you can find instructions showing how to delete the malware manually. Read more »

Do you have 1862 US Dollars just lying around? If you do not, fulfilling the demands of the BitKangoroo Ransomware might be complicated. When this devious infection slithers in, it encrypts your files and then requests a payment of 1 Bitcoin – which, at the moment, translates to the sum above – to be paid within an hour. Even if money is not an issue, paying the ransom is risky because it is unlikely that the promised decryption key would be provided to you after paying it. Needless to say, you are in a sticky situation if this ransomware has invaded your operating system and encrypted your files. The good news is that you should be able to find a decryptor that can decrypt your files for free, and that is not something that happens often. Hopefully, you manage to get your files decrypted, and you can delete BitKangoroo Ransomware without any hesitation. Note that if your files are freed, the malicious components are still active, and you will not be safe until you remove them from your PC. Read more »
