EstasAzulCorrupta is a virus, which infects Microsoft Office document files. EstasAzulCorrupta makes modifications to the files including .DOC, .XLS, and .PPT leaving them with a corrupt header. EstasAzulCorrupta doesn't modify the type of the file; however, it is impossible to open the file. EstasAzulCorrupta randomly selects which file to infect and occasionally affects other files such as .PDF and .TXT. EstasAzulCorrupta usually circulates with the help of Trojans. When run on the PC, EstasAzulCorrupta alters system settings. EstasAzulCorrupta downloads files on a variety of folders on the computer system. EstasAzulCorrupta also makes changes to the Windows Registry permitting it to start automatically every time the PC user boots up Windows. EstasAzulCorrupta takes the advantage of Microsoft Office vulnerabilities to gain remote access and control of the targeted PC and harm files. EstasAzulCorrupta may not destroy files created with the latest version of MS Office. Therefore, it is strongly advised to download all patches and updates for the programs of MS Office.

Hi

I think I've got the EstasAzul virus but I don't have access to the Internet on my very old laptop so think I've picked this up from a random memory stick but the question is how do I get my files back?

Please help
Thank you
Debra
