565067, RE: RED Ransomware popup Posted by wings515, Wed Mar-14-18 12:41 AM
The virus popped up again so I did some more digging. Recalled Rkill so I did the download from Bleeping Computer. When I clicked on the Malwarebytes icon it would not execute the program. I remember there was a part of the virus that looked at the file name, so I changed it to something else and then ran the program.
Much to my surprise, 4 malware instances were found plus two instances of Trojan virus.
So I think all my problems have been solved.
My concern is how did these get in in the first place. I thought Webroot should have caught them. My bad.
