New Tool for File Encrypting Trojan

Today's malware public service message is brought to you by the folks at Symantec. The company is also offering a free tool for anyone that has been hit by this new Trojan.


Trojan.Ramvicrype is a little different from most other Ransomware programs we've seen in the past. Typically these kinds of threats display a message prompting users to visit a certain Web page or email a specific address. Users will end up paying the online criminals in exchange for keys that can be used to unlock the computer or decrypt the encrypted files.
