ok, i was checking out the news on foxnews.com, and came acros this little but nasty critter. what it does is finds your files that you use a lot and then zips them and encryps the file with a 10+ character password, then tells you the only way you can possibly get the info back is to pay $300 to an account, and was boasting that there was nothing you can do except pay, but what they did't say and i thought up was, you have to wire the money to an accout, who says that you cant track the transaction, or worse, if they have your card number, then they could stael that number fairly easaly. just had to post that!!!
