[AusNOG] CryptoLocker Virus

[Sean Slater]

Hi all,

Leading on from Daniel's post, the best resource I've come across for
CrypoLocker is on BleepingComputer.com,

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/cryptolocker-ransomware-information

I haven't come across this thing yet personally, but it sounds nasty.

Kind Regards,

Sean Slater
