Avoid getting infected by Cryptolocker Ransomware What is Cryptolocker? Cryptolocker gets onto the system by clicking on links in E Mails and attachments. They hide as if they are PDF files, they pretent to be from legit company's like UPS, Fed Ex, DHL etc etc once clicked on, the payload can be devastating to the users data files, if on a networking, it can encrypt the users data, there are the file types it can encrypt. *.odt, *.ods, *.odp, *.odm, *.odc, *.odb, *.doc, *.docx, *.docm, *.wps, *.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlsm, *.xlsb, *.xlk, *.ppt, *.pptx, *.pptm, *.mdb, *.accdb, *.pst, *.dwg, *.dxf, *.dxg, *.wpd, *.rtf, *.wb2, *.mdf, *.dbf, *.psd, *.pdd, *.pdf, *.eps, *.ai, *.indd, *.cdr, *.jpg, *.jpe, img_*.jpg, *.dng, *.3fr, *.arw, *.srf, *.sr2, *.bay, *.crw, *.cr2, *.dcr, *.kdc, *.erf, *.mef, *.mrw, *.nef, *.nrw, *.orf, *.raf, *.raw, *.rwl, *.rw2, *.r3d, *.ptx, *.pef, *.srw, *.x3f, *.der, *.cer, *.crt, *.pem, *.pfx, *.p12, *.p7b, *.p7c Once ransom is active and all your data is encrypted, you have to choose if you want to pay the cyber criminal, or wait for a decryption tool to be released or just remove malware infection and recover your data from your drive, using data recovery software. I would never pay a criminal to release my encrypted data. HitmanPro.Alert is a free tool HitmanPro.Alert Features Alerts the user when critical functions of the browser are compromised by known and new banking Trojans, like: Zeus SpyEye Sinowal (aka Mebroot and Torpig) Ice-IX Citadel Cridex Carberp Shylock Tinba and many others... http://www.surfright.nl/en/alert http://www.briteccomputers.co.uk

  8. Hi Brian, I think your videos are really good. I use Malwarebytes, Hitman Pro etc to keep my laptop clean but a friend of mine advised me about Combofix. I was just wondering if you use it and whats your opinion on it.  
  9. Brian, how do I delete the Ras Async Adapter from my Device Manager?
  10. bry can you test TechGenie Antivirus ?
  11. Could you do a video on AppGaurd?   Blocking cyrptolocker?  Many thanks!
  12. Very important to  Backup your PC! Everyday!  Get into a habit of doing this!
  13. i use avast antivirus and malwarebytes pro version even system restore
  14. So what you think you had, was a variant that first dups files then after encryption, deletes original file?
  15. Pls make one video on advanced uninstaller pro because after in install my windows 8 is freezing 
  16. Avoid getting ANYTHING by switching to linux.
  17. The only virus I have ever gotten in the last 30+ Years was from a Flash Ad, the 2009 Rogue Antivirus. Easily removed and strangely, no one responded at Kapersky or Norton or McAfee when I told them about it. They did eventually make a big deal about it and released removal tools, but...
  18. Very Very helpful.
    Tnx Brian.
    Again, Very helpful video.
