Again appeared kidnapping trojans

Security firm Sophos yesterday warned users of a new "kidnapping" trojan that requires users to pay $ 10.99 to stop deleting files on the infected system.

The Ransom.a trojan, once successfully hacked, will lock down the infected system and issue a notification that it will delete the files on the system every 30 minutes until the user Italy pays $ 10.99 to an account via Western Union money transfer channel.

The notice that this trojan child claims confirms that anti-virus or malware software is completely incapable of recovering deleted files, Ctrl-Alt-Del fee combination is completely disabled in this case. This trojan automatically activates every time Windows is started.

Every time the user presses the Ctrl-Alt-Del key, this trojan turns out another message with the content ' Yeah, We don't die, We multiply! Ctrl + Alt + Del isn't quite working today, is it? I'm not sharpest tool trong sự shed But Crtl + Alt + Del is everyone's SOS . ' ('Yeah, we can't die, we are cloning! Ctrl + Alt + Del has been disabled. Ctrl + Alt + Del is not the best tool but it is still a lifeline for all everyone ').

Known as 'kidnapping' malware because they threaten to destroy or harden data and force users to pay to 'liberate'. However, this is the second trojan in this category discovered in the last 5 weeks.

In mid-March, there was a trojan called " Cryzip " and " Zippo.a " asking users to pay 300USD to recover the password of encrypted files. However, security companies have quickly found this password.
