‘Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha’ Ransomware

Posted: November 9, 2012

'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware is an Ireland-specific ransomware Trojan that displays fake alerts that appear to be from Ireland's police force. While these alerts claim that your computer has been used for various crimes and must be locked until you pay a fine, SpywareRemove.com malware experts haven't found any ties between 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware and the Garda Síochána, and it can safely be assumed that any money that's paid to 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware will make its way into criminal hands. Because the 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware will prevent you from using your computer until you disable 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware, you should use standard anti-malware techniques for that purpose and then remove the 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware with an appropriate anti-malware scanner.

'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware: Terrorism on Your Computer in a Government Employee's Uniform

'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware is unable to distribute itself and must be installed by methods such as Trojan droppers, drive-by-download exploits from malicious web pages or disguised spam links. After 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware is installed, 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware restarts your computer and displays an HTML-based pop-up alert that blocks your entire screen – which, as SpywareRemove.com malware analysts note, is one of the most obvious symptoms of a ransomware Trojan-related infection.

Even though the 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware claims to be authorized by the government of Ireland, its malware coders were sufficiently lazy that they failed to include any of the typical emblems or symbols that members of the Lockscreen and Reveton families often use to make their warnings look legitimate. Other than Ireland's flag and a few citations of fake legal threats, the 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware does very little to make itself look like a real legal alert.

'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware warns you that your machine has been utilized for actionable activities (such as viewing illegal pornography) and insists that you pay a fine through Ukash vouchers before your computer can be unlocked. However, since 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware can't detect crimes or respond to unlock codes, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers don't see any reason to pay this illegal fee.

Calling 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware's Bluff on Its Digital Threats

'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware claims that additional legal penalties will befall you if you don't pay its ransom, but this bluster can be ignored as an attempt to make you pay out as fast as possible. Because its alert is geared towards attacking PCs in Ireland, other countries are unlikely to experience 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware attacks in significant quantities. However, SpywareRemove.com malware experts also found similar attacks throughout the globe that have been spearheaded by families of ransomware Trojans like Winlock, Lockscreen and especially Reveton.

Particularly close relatives of 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware include West Yorkshire Ransomware and Royal Canadian Mount Police (RCMP) Ransomware, of the United Kingdom and Canada, respectively. Despite their tendencies to revamp the imagery of their alerts to correspond to specific countries, ransomware Trojans related to 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware usually can be identified by their similarities to 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware and other prominent ransomware-based PC threats.

Because you're unlikely to be able to use other programs while 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware is on your PC, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers suggest that you boot into Safe Mode before you remove 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware. Disabling 'Tá do ríomhaire cosc curtha' Ransomware in this manner will make disinfecting your PC with anti-malware software easier than otherwise.
