Avast came up and asked me if I should deny or allow the execution of Riaiccape exe. Then I realized that my computer has been infected with such a virus, I was anxious about this and I tried everything I know but it just wouldn’t go away. Then I ran malwarebyites hoping it could delete the virus. It did delete a bunch of malwares but just despite of Riaiccape exe, which I aimed to delete. Malwarebyites even failed to find the file. I highlight this file and run a check on it with either avast or malwarebyites, the latter one said there was no infection and the former one said the file couldn’t be scanned and that it was a decompression bomb. I even asked some of my friends who are talented with computers but with no luck to remove the infected folders and files. Is there any other way to overcome this problem and help me remove the damn thing?

Have you been confused by Flash Player Pro and Flash Player? What is the difference between the two software? Have you downloaded and installed the former but was not able to uninstall it? Is it really as good as other players? Is there any risk to use this player pro? If it’s malware, is it necessary to uninstall it asap? What if you can’t uninstall the software? Is there any other better solution?
The Essence of Flash Player Pro
Flash Player Pro is a fake video or sound player which has been created by some unscrupulous software engineers to earn huge profit. You may be confused the first time you see this software because it has almost the same name as a famous legal software Flash Player. You must be aware that every once in a few days, when you started your computer, a window would pop up to ask you to update your flash player. It’s an important software to assist you to browser web sites. If you don’t update it for a long time, when you open your web browser, pictures can’t be displayed nor videos can be played. You can only see a big X sign on every picture. However, Flash Player Pro has nothing to do with the important Flash Player software. It’s thoroughly another software which doesn’t have any important functions. Read the rest of this post »

Infected with Decrypt Protect Virus and all my files, Pictures, excels or words have been converted to HTML extension. My computer caught a horrible virus last night that totally locked my desktop. I cannot access my files or run any program on the PC. All I can see on the screen was a warning with the title called Online Security. And on the left side, it said something like MBL Advisory and also showed me Decrypt Protect on the top. I believed it was a virus because it required me to pay a fine of 300$ to unlock computer. I have managed to unlock my computer in safe mode. However, I found that all of my files are encrypted including documents, videos, images, etc. How do I unlock my computer and decrypt all the files?
Why Your Files Are Encrypted By Decrypt Protect Virus? How Does This Virus Work?
Decrypt Protect Virus (also called Online Security Virus/MBL Advisory Virus) is a ransomware computer infection designed to block your computer and encrypt your files with a HTML file, making victims not able to access their desktop and files. Users may get this virus installed by clicking malicious code or distribute unsafe advertising pop-ups, visiting pornographic website or downloading attachment from spam emails. As soon as it is downloaded, victims will see the computer locked immediately. After that, they will get message like:
You have 48 hours left to enter your payment.
You have lost control over your computer. Your system and all your files has been blocked and encrypted because you were spreading Malware (viruses, Trojans, worms).
You are breaking numerous International and USA laws.
Obviously, this warning is fabricated. This Decrypt Protect virus will configure itself to start automatically by modifying your registry entries. Thus, every time you log in Windows, you will see a warning which states that your data and computer will be inaccessible unless you pay a fine of $300 within 48 hours by using the Moneypak card. It further warns that if you wait longer than 48 hours, local authorities and secret service will be contacted, and most likely it will result in your arrest. This ransomware works as similar as the most popular one called FBI Virus. But it is more aggressive as it can encrypt all your files stored with the extension of txt, doc, xml, dat, docx, pst, .xls in your computer and rename them as a HTML file which means you have no chance to access your files any more. To threaten unwary users further, it even displays your IP address and poses to be a serious case by giving you the order number and counting down the tracking time.

The United Kingdom Police Virus is a high risk ransomware attack that blocks the users computer and demands that 100 pounds be paid in order to unblock the computer, all stemming from copyright violations involving downloading and sharing pirated files online.
