RE: Ransomware is nasty....

Posted by 4everyoung on March 6, 2017 at 20:43:12:
The Ransomware virus disguised itself as a verified Microsoft update. I clicked yes and in a split second all my programs were encrypted and I had 24 hours to pay them $500 or all my programs would be permanently encrypted. Nice people. Most pay the ransom. I refused. It had nothing to do with email. I never click on links in an email.
