Zuahahhah Ransomware
A new ransomware infection, a variant of Crypt888 has been recently detected by malware researchers. It has received the name Zuahahhah Ransomware. It has been classified as ransomware not without reason, of course. Research conducted by specialists working at anti-spyware-101.com has clearly shown that it encrypts files. Although it locks files like all other ransomware infections do, it is impossible to purchase the decryption tool at the time of writing. This suggests that cyber criminals behind this ransomware infection do not seek to obtain money from victims at the time of writing. Of course, everything might change soon. Do not worry too much if you encounter the same version analyzed by our malware researchers, i.e. the version that does not offer to purchase a decryptor and does not contain any information about the decryption of files because a free decryption tool exists and can be downloaded from the web. You must, of course, delete the ransomware infection before you use the free decryptor because it might be encrypted and thus become useless. The last paragraph of this article focuses on the removal of the ransomware infection. Read more »
