In a nutshell, Ransomware
are rogue anti-spyware products that are peddled by
trojans and worms. The process is as follows:
- A
trojan infects your computer
- The
trojan then displays messages stating that your
computer is infected
- The
trojan proposes a rogue anti-spyware product the
clean your computer, hence the ransom to be paid!
Below is a list of these rogue anti-spyware programs and
their affiliated trojans:

What should you do if
you start receiving error messages or pop-up
advertisements pointing to one of these products? It is
definitely NOT to buy any of these bad products; the
answer is to get rid of the trojan that causes the
pop-ups.
We have receive many
reports from users that have tried to remove these
trojans using their anti-virus programs (Norton
Anti-Virus, McAfee and others), and although these
programs do detect the trojans, they are unable to
remove them. That's why we have invested a lot of time
and effort and came up with a solution which we have
incorporated into our Anti-Spyware program called
SpyNoMore. We actually had to infect several computers
with these trojans in order to analyze their sneaky
techniques and derive a solid solution. Among the
techniques used to evade removal, these trojans use
randomly named files, random md5's (file signatures) and
mutating files.
SpyNoMore, unlike other
(good) anti-spyware products, does not solely rely on
database detection, a process which has proven highly
ineffective against these randomizing trojans. Instead,
SpyNoMore incorporates additional features that enable
it to run smart scans that are not database-dependent.
SpyNoMore analyzes and removes suspicious files based on
the activity that the trojans exhibit.
SpyNoMore comes loaded
with other features such as:
- Huge
Anti-Spyware Database guarantees removal of
existing infections
-
Active Protection blocks new spyware BEFORE they
infect your PC
- Host
Blocking ensures that known spyware-spawning
websites are always blocked
-
Vaccination feature inoculates your system
against inbound threats
-
Ticket-Based HelpDesk ensures a timely and
professional response
-
Custom Fix™ (patent pending) is a very powerful
system which removes any persistent infection. Say
for instance your PC is infected with a very
stubborn spyware program and nothing that you have
tried has helped remove this infection. SpyNoMore's
Custom Fix™ (patent pending) feature scans your PC
and allows you to upload the scan report to our
server for manual analysis by our Technical Staff.
Your report will be reviewed and a customized Fix
will be sent back to you via SpyNoMore, thereby
guaranteeing full and permanent removal. No other
anti-spyware software offers such feature!
Best of all, SpyNoMore
offers a free scan and if you decide to remove the
detected items the cost is $39.95. That covers up to 3
PC's for 1 year. Click Here
