Hello Folks,
There is a new and vicious type of malware - called ransomware - that ENCRYPTS your files and the only way to get anything from your computer is to pay them $1,000 to unlock the encryption. The latest is called TeslaCrypt 3.0.
This is as serious as a heart attack. Be careful out there.

So, back up your files DAILY - and run a recommended antivirus firewall program!
