The new nightmare that can hit your computer silently but rather deadly is called CryLocker Ransomware. This malware infection has a similar name to another ransomware that showed up a few weeks ago, Cry Ransomware, but they seem to be different in several areas. Nevertheless, their ransom note is practically identical. According to our malware researchers working at anti-spyware-101.com, this can happen when authors simply copy another threat or these infections come from the same source, i.e., a ransomware service offered on the Dark Web. We believe that the latter in more likely in this case as even the used personalized websites are all the same apart from the money extorted from the victims, of course. This ransomware encrypts most of your files with an algorithm that is virtually impossible to crack; therefore, it is quite possible that you will not be able to recover your files after this serious attack. We do not advise you to pay the demanded fee because in most cases this is just a scam and you will not get anything in return. If you want to know how you can remove CryLocker Ransomware from your system and how you can avoid similar dangerous threats, please read on. Read more »
