If you have discovered that your computer has been locked by Carabinieri Virus, it is important that you remove the clandestine Urausy Trojan which has corrupted your operating Windows system. The malign infection itself does not have an interface; however, it presents a screen-locking notification. This is where the name of the ransomware derives from. This warning notification is completely bogus and you should pay absolutely no attention to it. Even though the credentials of Polizia del Comunicazioni, Cyber Crime Unit, Internet Police, CNAIPIC and Copyright Alliance are intimidating, we can guarantee that they have been attached illegally. None of these agencies/organizations have anything to do with the lock-down of your personal computer! It is all schemers and so Carabinieri Virus removal should be performed as soon as possible.
