Trojan.Ransomlock.N is a cybercriminal's online version of a kidnapping that demands ransom for the release of your computer. Trojan.Ransomlock.N attacks Windows-based systems and contains programming able to lock up or kidnap the infected computer's functionality. Victims will be blocked from using the keyboard or mouse and all applications, and will be shown a ransom note containing a lewd image that accuses them of watching gay porn for free. To supposedly unlock the infected system, victims must make a Beeline system payment of $400 USD.
While the Russian-based ransom scam promises to 'release' or unlock the system for payment, this is a bold-face lie. The systematic attack is programmed to repeat at each Windows start. In truth, the data has not been removed as threaten it, one only needs to reverse this selection. However, as mentioned earlier, this will not make the infection go away since Trojan.Ransomlock.N has been cleverly stored and hidden in the memory.
To remove Trojan.Ransomlock.N and protect your system going forth from continuous malware attacks, you should rely on a professional anti-malware solution to bail out your system. A reliable anti-malware system can restore corrupted files and components, reverse malicious system changes and unearth as well as destroy hidden malware without harming your hard drive.
