‘FBI Your PC is Blocked’ Ransomware

'FBI Your PC is blocked' ransomware is a ransomware Trojan that blocks any attempts to use other applications until a high fine is paid.

As is typically the case with ransomware Trojans, the ideal means of responding to a 'FBI Your PC is blocked' ransomware infection is to disable 'FBI Your PC is blocked' ransomware and then delete 'FBI Your PC is blocked' ransomware in an anti-malware scan, as opposed to giving in to its attempt at online extortion.

Don't Believe It When This FBI Knocks on Your Virtual Door
