Did GrujaRSorium Ransomware invade your Windows operating system? You are not supposed to know this right away, but once this infection encrypts files, it also displays a message that reveals the entire attack. The infection needs to remain undetected for the invasion and the encryption, so that you would not remove it before the attack is complete. It then needs to reveal itself, so that you would know that your files were encrypted and that you need to obey your attackers. Needless to say, Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers recommend being very cautious about what you do after your files are encrypted. If you continue reading, you will learn why interacting with the creators of the infection is a terrible idea, and you will learn how to delete GrujaRSorium Ransomware from the Windows operating system. We also discuss how this malware spreads, so that you could prevent similar infections from slithering in again.

ChaCha Ransomware
ChaCha Ransomware plays an audio recording saying your files were encrypted and then shows a black screen with a message from the malware’s creators. As usual for such threats, its ransom note claims the hackers are the only ones who can help a victim restore his data and that users should contact them as soon as possible. It might even say the cybercriminals will give you a fair price or guarantee that you will get the needed decryption tools, but, the truth is, there are no guarantees when dealing with hackers. If you realize that and do not wish to take any chances, we advise removing ChaCha Ransomware. As we explain in the text, you might need to rewrite Windows to restore your system and get rid of the threat. However, if the computer works as usual, you might be able to erase the malicious application with the instructions provided at the end of this article. Read more »

GottaCry Ransomware
GottaCry Ransomware is a malicious program designed for money extortion. However, users who encounter it may not have the reason to pay a ransom. Apparently, the malware’s pop-up window may lie about user’s files being encrypted and then deleted. Thus, no doubt anyone who checks whether the malicious application’s statements are true first, will realize there is no need to put up with any demands. In such a case, we advise deleting GottaCry Ransomware from the system. Even though it does not look like it can restart with the operating system, it would still be unwise to keep a threat on your computer. To deal with it manually, you could follow the step by step instructions provided at the end of this article. For more details about it, we encourage you to have a look at our full report.

Krypton Stealer
It’s one thing to deal with a ransomware infection, and then it’s another thing to deal with Trojan. Although both are closely related, when we battle ransomware infections, we often have the “visual.” With Trojans like Krypton Stealer, it is often hard to tell whether this program is installed on your system or not without a proper scan. Hence, if you want to remove Krypton Stealer from your computer, you have probably performed a full system scan already, and you know that you must terminate this infection. You probably also know that there might be more dangerous infections on-board, too. Read more »

Skymap Ransomware is a dangerous computer infection that should be terminated as soon as possible. As you can obviously tell from the name, this program encrypts target files and then expects the affected user to pay a ransom fee for the files. Computer security experts always emphasize that transferring the ransom payment seldom solves anything. If anything, you need to remove Skymap Ransomware, and then look for other methods to restore the affected files. Please do not fall into this trap, and keep your money to yourself. Also, do everything you can to avoid similar infections in the future. Read more »
TitanCryptor Ransomware
TitanCryptor Ransomware is the kind of malware that can destroy your personal files. Even though it only encrypts them – which, in theory, means that you should be able to decrypt them – recovering them has not been possible yet. Even though free decryptors do not exist, and restoring files manually is not possible, victims might be tricked into paying money for the decryptor allegedly created by the attackers. Can you trust them? Anti-Spyware-101.com research team does not recommend it. Even though cyber criminals might respond to you once you contact them first, it is unlikely that you would hear from them again after paying the ransom. Keep your money to yourself and, instead, figure out how to delete TitanCryptor Ransomware from your operating system. If you need help, you will find useful removal information in this article. If you continue reading, you will also learn how this malware spreads and, in turn, how to protect your Windows operating system against it in the future. Read more »

Blitzkrieg Ransomware
Blitzkrieg Ransomware is an infection that encrypts files and then adds either “.bkc” or “.non” extension to their original names to mark them. When you see either of these extensions, you no longer need to try to open the file to see whether or not it is corrupted. Unfortunately, our Anti-Spyware-101.com research team warns that checking the files and assessing the situation might be impossible. That is because the malicious threat practically goes after all files. Needless to say, if system files are encrypted, you might be unable to run your operating system normally. If that has happened, you might need to reinstall Windows. Otherwise, you could leave the infected machine in the hands of a professional. In any case, even if your computer is running normally, if files were encrypted, it is unlikely that you will be able to set them free. That will not happen even when you remove Blitzkrieg Ransomware. Obviously, deleting this threat is important, and we discuss that too. Read more »
