That Evil CryptoLocker Virus Is Still Going Around

  I have seen some more cases of the CryptoLocker Virus going around. I have noticed that some people are confusing the CryptoLocker Virus with some of the other Ransom FBI Viruses that are still out there on the internet. The Main Difference is that the CryptoLocker Virus encrypts the hard drive resulting in the owner not being able to get at the data. They try to get you to pay a ransom price to unlock the drive. Sometimes that does not help and all is lost. The FBI Ransom Viruses generally just keep popping up the fake FBI Warning not allowing you to run any programs. This virus however can be removed without the loss of any data. Here is a very good video below about the CryptoLocker Virus.

Here is a video below on removing the fake FBI Ransomware virus. I am not sure how well this will work. I my self download both Hiren 15. and Hirens 15.2 ISO files. I burn them to a couple of cdr disks. I also download Combofix, Malwarebytes, TDSS Killer.exe, Super Antispyware Portable Tech Version, Eset Online Scanner Portable and copy them to a flash drive. I reboot the computer off the Hirens 15.1 disk and choose mini windows environment. Make sure your ethernet cable is connected to the system. Click on the internet explorer and make sure you have in internet connection. I insert my flash drive and copy the files to a folder I create called virus programs. I first run malwarebytes and update it. DO NOT UPGRADE IT TO THE CURRENT VERSION. STAY AT THE 1.75 VERSION, BECAUSE THE NEWEST VERSIONS WILL NOT RUN. Make sure you update each program as you run them. Reboot the system pressing the F8 key. Choose to go to the safe mode with the command prompt. Once at the dos screen go to the directory you saved the programs in. Now you can type for example combofix.exe and press enter. Follow the prompts to run combofix and reboot when necessary. Generally when this has been run you can enter the system to the normal mode and run any other virus programs. I would suggest downloading the current versions of Malwarebytes and Spybot, install them, update them and run them. Delete and remove whatever is found. Malwarebytes put them in a quarantine file and you can delete what is found. Spybot will find infections, they can be selected and they can be removed.
