SpywareRemove.com malware researchers don't see any need to give in to 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware's ransom attempt, since 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware can be removed by suitable anti-malware programs after 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware is disabled (with methods noted later in this article). Unsurprisingly, 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware's distribution is focused on France, but 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware is also capable of infecting PCs in other countries, and suspicious websites should be avoided to keep 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware at a good distance from your computer.

'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware – the Trojan That Uses Itself as a Cover

'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware is unable to detect or assist with the removal of any form of malicious software, including the Windows-locking software that 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware claims to be attempting to thwart. 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware's primary symptom is a fake Windows installation/login screen that, despite its deficiencies, claims that your PC has been infected and that a fee is required to allow you to access your operating system again. Of course, 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware's methods aren't legitimate strategies for any type of anti-malware software, and removing 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware, itself, is the only thing that will allow you to use your PC as normal.

Before you can delete 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware in an anti-malware scan, you'll need to prevent 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware from starting itself so that you can access to the rest of your Windows interface and all relevant programs. SpywareRemove.com malware experts recommend one of the following two solutions as the most convenient options:

  • Initially, you may wish to try rebooting Windows in Safe Mode. Reboot as normal and tap F8 until the Windows Advanced Options menu appears. Safe Mode with Networking will allow you to use Safe Mode along with basic Internet connectivity, although some other programs may not function.
  • If Safe Mode fails to disable 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware, load a separate OS on a flash drive or other removable device. Launching your PC from this device will let you initiate anti-malware scans without 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware interfering.

When Online Commerce Promotes 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware

Recent propagation methods for 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware use malicious pornography sites (such as popander.mobi) to distribute 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware and similar PC threats via a combination of browser exploits, redirects and malicious advertisements. Ads hosted on these sites initiate automatic redirects that lead, eventually, to an exploit kit. This kit then installs 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware automatically.

Because 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware's distribution is web browser-based, browser safety measures are important for keeping 'Sur votre ordinateur est infecté' French Ransomware out of your PC. SpywareRemove.com malware researchers especially encourage that you disable Java, JavaScript, Flash and other exploitable features whenever you're visiting websites that have poor security or are otherwise untrustworthy.
