The hackers behind BeethoveN Ransomware are suggesting the user can negotiate the amount of ransom that is supposed to be paid in exchange for the means to unlock the malware’s damaged files. However, we are here to warn you that despite their friendly tone these hackers cannot be trusted, and so we advise you not to contact them at all. Even if you manage to get a smaller price, who is to say these cyber criminals will not ask for more money once they receive the ransom. Not to mention it could appear they cannot provide the needed decryption key or they simply might not bother to send it to the user. Thus, instead of putting up with any demands, our researchers at Anti-spyware-101.com recommend erasing BeethoveN Ransomware at once. Afterward, you could gather the copies you have on removable media devices, cloud storages, or other places, and switch the encrypted files with them. Read more »

CryMore Ransomware presents itself as a ransomware infection, but it differs from such typical ransomware infections as CryptoGod Ransomware, TheDarkEncryptor Ransomware, or Executioner Ransomware in a sense that it does not encrypt any files stored on affected computers. We do not know 100% whether it is still in development or the sample tested by specialists at anti-spyware-101.com was not working fully, but we are sure that, at the time of writing, this ransomware infection does not encrypt any files even though the window it opens for users on their Desktops claims that their all files have already been encrypted and they need to purchase a decryption tool to get them back. Strangely, no information about the payment is provided on this window, and users do not even know the price of the decryption tool. In other words, it is impossible to send cyber criminals money in exchange for the decryption tool. Because of this, our specialists believe that it is still in development or not working properly. Either way, remove CryMore Ransomware from your system without consideration and do not send cyber criminals a single cent. Read more »

TheDarkEncryptor Ransomware is a new file-encrypting infection that was created for the purpose of taking money from its victims. Once this infection encrypts files, it immediately demands a ransom to be paid. Although it is stated that the ransom can give the victim a working decryptor, Anti-Spyware-101.com researchers strongly doubt that that would happen. If you paid the ransom, it is much more likely that your files would remain encrypted and the ransomware would remain active on your operating system. Therefore, if your personal files were encrypted by this malicious infection, you should not rush to fulfill the demands represented via the ransom note. While you have to decide for yourself whether or not you will pay the ransom, there are no options when it comes to the removal of TheDarkEncryptor Ransomware. This infection MUST be deleted, and you should not postpone this task for much longer. Also note that even if you get your files decrypted, erasing the ransomware is still crucial. Read more »

A new ransomware infection Ramsey Ransomware has been recently spotted by malware researchers. Since the primary language of this malicious application is Turkish, specialists at anti-spyware-101.com are sure that this threat is spread in Turkey the most actively.

The infections within this family are built using the same open source code that is available to anyone who is willing to invest some money.
