Malware Protection Warning

Malware Protection Warning ('...access to your computer is limited and all your important files have (sic!) been decrypted with AES-256-KEY') is a ransomware Trojan that uses a cunning double-play to make you believe that your files have been encrypted and that your PC has been blocked to protect the rest of the Internet. Although the Malware Protection Warning scam uses an impressively sophisticated psychological ploy, minor details like grammatical and technical errors simplify the process of detecting Malware Protection Warning as a fraud and not a legitimate message with your best interests at heart. Although a complete analysis of Malware Protection Warning is still undergoing, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers have seen few indications that Malware Protection Warning actually has encryption capabilities in the first place, and see no reason to recommend that you pay the Malware Protection Warning's ransom fee. Instead, you should disable the Malware Protection Warning and remove the associated ransomware Trojan with a competent anti-malware program.

Why Malware Protection Warning is One Warning That You Shouldn't Heed

The Malware Protection Warning uses a basic scam that's similar to those that are used by other types of ransomware Trojans, although its logic is somewhat more involved than that of a typical Trojan. Malware Protection Warning claims that your PC's files have been encrypted (rendered unusable via a complex code) by criminals who want to extract the whopping fee of two thousand dollars in return for removing the encryption (a process that's known as decryption). However, the Malware Protection Warning offers a relatively cheaper option and claims that a 'friendly' hacker group is willing to decrypt your files in exchange for only several hundred dollars or Euros.

All evidence that has so far been collected by SpywareRemove.com malware experts leads them to believe that this encryption threat is fake and that difficulties in accessing other programs are caused by the Trojan that creates the Malware Protection Warning in the first place. Since there's no guarantee that paying this fine will even remove the Malware Protection Warning at all, SpywareRemove.com malware experts recommend that you treat the Malware Protection Warning as a threat to be ignored and exterminated from your PC.
