MarioLocker Ransomware
MarioLocker Ransomware is an infection that might have been abandoned by its creator already. That is what we have to think about because one of the most important files that belong to this malware can no longer be downloaded onto the infected systems. Perhaps this is just a temporary glitch, and perhaps the file will become downloadable again. If that happens, the Anti-Spyware-101.com research team will report back to you as soon as possible. For now, it looks like we are dealing with something that might be obsolete already. That being said, it is always possible that the threat could be spread even if parts of it are dysfunctional. In most cases, ransomware is spread using spam emails or bundled downloaders, and you could always open spam emails much later on, and bundled downloaders could float around with dysfunctional malware for a long time. Whatever the case, whether or not your files were encrypted, you need to remove MarioLocker Ransomware if it got in. Continue reading, and you will learn how to delete this threat. Read more »
Odveta Ransomware
Odveta Ransomware locks personal victims’ files and marks them with the .odveta extension. Such data can only be opened if it is decrypted first.

There is always a risk that hackers may not hold on to their end of the deal. Before you choose anything, we advise getting to know this malware better by reading our full article. Also, if you decide you want to remove Odveta Ransomware manually, we recommend checking the deletion steps available below this text. Read more »
