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). It will be easy to clean the system if you follow it step-by-step. Read more »

Koler Ransomware is a screen-locking infection that affects Android devices. Unlike the most common ransomware programs that attack Windows systems and encrypt the files they find on those systems, Koler Ransomware does not encrypt anything. Rather than holding your files hostage, the infection tries to convince you that you have committed something illegal and thus you need to pay the fine to unlock your device. Needles to say, you need to remove this infection without even thinking of paying the supposed “fine.” You have done nothing wrong, and the program only wants to scare you into thinking that you are a criminal.

File Spider Ransomware is a new malicious application that belongs to the crypto-malware category. As research conducted by specialists at anti-spyware-101.com has revealed, it mainly spreads in Croatia, Serbia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. If you reside in any of these countries, you should be very cautious all the time because you might allow this nasty infection to enter your system by simply clicking on some kind of malicious link, opening a malicious email attachment, or downloading software from a hacked website. Of course, it does not mean that users living in other countries cannot encounter this malicious application either. Even though users usually do not know anything about the entrance of the ransomware infection, it turns out quickly that such a threat has infiltrated the computer because it encrypts files right away and appends a new extension to them all. You cannot unlock these files by removing this extension. You need to have a unique key “generated specifically for this PC” to decrypt them. The reason ransomware infections are developed is to obtain money from users, so we are sure you will not be given this decryption key for free. Do not send Bitcoins to cyber criminals because they will never stop developing new threats if they always get what they want from victims. Additionally, the promise to send you the decryptor right away after receiving money might be a lie. To be honest, the chances are quite high that you will not get anything from crooks behind File Spider Ransomware, so you should delete this threat from your system immediately. Once this infection is gone from your computer, you could try alternative data recovery methods. Unfortunately, we cannot promise that you will find a way to unlock your files for free. Read more »
