    I might have a trojan virus


    I think I might have installed a trojan on accident, but am not entirely sure and am unsure if it is still on my laptop.Last week my Discord had been hacked and had spammed all my contacts after I downloaded a suspicious file from the internet.

    New Trojan that Demands a Ransom

    There is a new virus out there discovered by virus hunters known as "Cryzip". The Trojan encrypts your files and then demands a $300 ransom for the decryption password to get your files back.
