RSA Ransomware was created by hackers who want to extort money from their victims. Therefore, the malicious application was programmed to encrypt personal data and display a ransom note asking to pay for their decryption. While hackers may claim they will provide needed decryption tools right after they get their money, we would not rush to trust them. There is always a risk they may not bother delivering the promised tools or that they might ask for more money. Thus, the best way to restore your files would be using backup copies. Of course, not every user backups his files, in which case, encrypted data could be lost if a victim does not want to put up with hackers’ demands. Whatever is your decision, we recommend removing RSA Ransomware because it might be risky to leave it undeleted. To find out more about it as well as learn how to erase it, we invite you to continue reading. Read more »

DOGCALL is one of those things that are hard to notice if you do not perform regular system security scans. It is a Trojan that is used to access a target system. The term for these infections is RAT – Remote Access Tool. It means that with this malicious threat on-board, someone gains access to your system, and then the infection can be used to perform a number of illegal activities. To remove DOGCALL, you actually need to be aware of the fact it is there. Thus, regular system scans with security tools are very important if you intend to protect your system from harm.

Mespinoza Ransomware is very dangerous, and if you make the mistake of letting this malware into your operating system, you are likely to find most of your personal files encrypted. Needless to say, you are unlikely to let this malware in knowingly, but cybercriminals know the tricks and the backdoors that can be used to help the distribution of malware. For example, cybercriminals know that many people continue to be careless with spam emails. They open them, they read them, and if the message is convincing enough, they might be tricked into opening the attached file. As you might have gathered already, this file represents malware. Once the file is opened, the path for malware to slither in is cleared, and if security software is not set up to look out for you and delete infections before they are executed, the attack is underway. Sadly, once personal files are encrypted, they cannot be restored. You cannot salvage them even by removing Mespinoza Ransomware. Read more »

VIRUS Ransomware is a threat that encrypts files and displays a ransom note. Meaning, the malicious application was created for money extortion. If you do not want to fund cybercriminals, you could use your backup copies (e.g., files on cloud storage or removable media devices) to get your data back. The malicious application's ransom note may suggest purchasing decryption tools by contacting the threat’s creators and paying a ransom. Of course, doing so would be risky as hackers are not people that you can trust. This is why we always advise not to pay ransom for victims who fear being tricked. However, before deciding anything, we recommend learning more about this malicious application by reading our full article. Also, if you need guidance while erasing it, you should have a look at our deletion instructions available below this article too. Read more »

If you keep reading our article, you can learn more about this malware. Also, we advise checking our removal instructions available at the end of the text. They can help you remove Cyborg Ransomware manually if you feel up to such a task.

Nvram Ransomware is a malicious computer infection. Users download and install this ransomware themselves, but they are not aware of it at first. After all, who in their right mind would ever download a malicious infection willingly?

You should also look for ways to restore your files, and then protect your system from other potential infections. Please note that investing in a licensed security tool is a must, but it is not enough to ensure that ransomware doesn’t enter your computer again. Read more »

Decrypme Ransomware goes after the most sensitive part of your operating system – your personal files. Whether it is a wedding video, a work document, or a childhood photo, this malicious infection can grab the file and change its data to render it unreadable. The ransomware does not encrypt files with .decryptme, .dll, .encrypted, .exe, .ini, .lnk, .rdp, and .sys extensions, but these extensions do not really represent personal files, and the infection is not interested in those. In fact, it specifically avoids system files by circumventing all folders that are found in certain locations. These locations are \AppData, \Application Data, \intel, \nvidia, \Program Files, \Users\All Users, \Windows, allusersprofile, programdata, programfiles(x86), systemdrive, userprofile, and windir. If the infection encrypted system files, it would be much easier to resolve the problem, but personal files cannot be replaced, unless backups exist. If backups exist, you have nothing to worry besides deleting Decrypme Ransomware. Read more »
