(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Cryptolocker encrypts local and network files using a public key, hiding the private key on a server in the cloud. It bribes you asking for ransom via bitcoin or moneypak of $100 or $300 to decrypt your files. If you don't pay ransom within 72 hours, the private key will be lost and your files cannot be recovered.

Dumbass people these days... who would pay 300$ to get the files back? If you were smart enough, you should of made a backup a long time ago and used it right now.

If you were smart enough you wouldn't get the virus to begin with. haha. It's most likely targeted at older people or people with little knowledge of computers, but it seems quite a few people have been infected by it.
