Ransomware - Buy Back Your Own Files

If the utility is downloaded and executed, the luckless user finds that it can "only repair one file in unregistered version":

W32/DatDoc - F-Secure

Deceptive antivirus/utility software that pressures users into buying or installing it (e.g., infecting a computer; displaying false or alarming warnings or scanning results). Once installed, it may not function as claimed.

• XP Antispyware 2010
• XP Antivirus PRO 2010
• XP Antivirus PRO
• XP Guardian 2010
• XP Guardian
• XP Internet Security 2010

On Windows Vista we have seen it use the following names:

• Antivirus Vista 2010
• Vista Antispyware 2010
• Vista Antivirus PRO
• Vista Guardian 2010
• Vista Guardian
• Vista Internet Security 2010
• Vista Internet Security

Lavasoft Security Center

Antivirus Vista 2010, Win 7 Antispyware 2010, and XP Internet Security 2010 are new rogues that are exactly the same program, but are shown with different names and interfaces depending on the version of Windows that it is run on

[safeguy]

Tools Needed for this fix:

* Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

MBAM and SuperAntiSpyware - the 1st 2 tools that you must try using when dealing with such stuffs...that's what the experts agree upon

[ceyfer]

Don't fall on scareware browser traps,don't download and execute the rogueware dropper agent, and you won't even need MBAM and SAS after all.

Prevention is always better than cure.
