Cryptomaniac Ransomware

Malware researchers have come across a nasty malicious program called Cryptomaniac Ransomware in the middle of December, 2017. It seems that it has not become a popular threat up to this day, but the situation might change soon. Also, it does not mean that it is impossible to encounter this threat if it is unpopular.

On top of that, it might slither onto computers without permission if unsafe RDP access credentials are used. Finally, it might be possible to download this threat directly from some kind of website containing tons of free software. Of course, Cryptomaniac Ransomware acts the same in all the cases. That is, it encrypts users’ personal files right away. There is only one reason it has been programmed to perform this only activity on victims’ computers – cyber criminals want your money. You should not give them the reason to continue developing new threats, i.e. you should not transfer money to them. Make sure you erase the ransomware infection from your computer too because it seems that it can erase randomly-picked encrypted files making them gone forever.

Cyclone Ransomware

Cyclone Ransomware

If you still have time, you need to strengthen your system’s protection as soon as possible against a newly discovered infection, Cyclone Ransomware. If it has already slithered in and encrypted your files, we hope that your personal files were backed up in time because if they were not, most likely, they are now lost. Although the infection does not remove them, it encrypts them, and that is just as bad because decrypting them can be impossible. Of course, the cyber crook who has created this malware should have a decryption key, but there is no reason why they would give it to you. Naturally, you are asked a ransom in return for this key, but trusting malware operators is extremely risky, and it would be very surprising if you got the key after paying the ransom. Needless to say, Anti-Spyware-101.com research team does not recommend taking any risks when it comes to your savings. All in all, regardless of how you proceed, you must delete Cyclone Ransomware, and that is discussed thoroughly in this report. Read more »

Zlocker Ransomware

Zlocker Ransomware

If it suddenly becomes impossible to access almost all files (e.g. pictures, documents, videos, and more) and they have a Unicode symbol, Zlocker Ransomware must have infiltrated your computer. It is not very easy to say how this threat enters computers because it has not become a prevalent infection yet; however, we are sure you have not given it permission to enter your computer. Ransomware infections are one of those threats that try to infiltrate computers unnoticed; however, they do not perform their activities in the background once they successfully enter systems. As a consequence, users soon find out about the entrance of the ransomware infection. The entrance of Zlocker Ransomware does not go unnoticed too because it encrypts victims’ files right away and, additionally, drops a ransom note in a .txt format. There is a bunch of similar threats that act the same, but you can be sure that Zlocker Ransomware is the one that has infiltrated your computer and locked your files if you see a Unicode character appended to all files you can no longer open. Delete this threat from your system if you are sure it is the one responsible for locking your files so that it could not encrypt your data in the future again. If you feel that you need some help with the removal of this crypto-threat, you should use our manual removal guide (you will find it below this article).
