A new trojan that can issue full-screen window that displays message “ERROR: Browser Security and Antiadware Software component license exprited!” is now spreading the internet. It also promotes some fake security program that will display false threat reports and requires user to register the software to be able to remove the infection.
The Trojan also has another variant that can encrypt various files on the computer rendering it useless. The author of the trojan demands payment to decrypt the file.
One Response for "New Fake Security Center – WinLock"
Look for a file called LOCKER.exe (LOCKER.EXE-0FFA166A in my case) in the registry (search should find it). Delete this (from safe mode) reboot and you should be OK. Took a while and some $$ to find it, but this is what I was told
Any Response?
