    Angry virus warning. no not a zombie virus but just as bad.

    its called cryptolocker or other names with crypto in it. what the virus does once it gets into your system and activated. it starts to encrypt your personal files like:docs, JPEGs and word etc... it uses an aes 256 bit encryption to do so. then you have to pay these thugs who made this little nightmare $300.00 usd to get them unencrypted, you only have 48 hours to do so. If after the 48 hours is up and you don't pay or try to fake a payment. they delete the key to unencrypt your files.

    our company got hit with this on Thursday last week.it really sucked, cause where I work. We share work files off a server our autocad files, our AI files, pdf files, etc.. got encrypted. some of it was old stuff others were new clients. so, please if you share files on a server back them up and be careful what you download.
    im including some links to info about it.
