United States Courts virus is a ransomware infection which seeks to make you pay money so that you can regain access to the computer. The so-called virus is actually a Trojan horse, which can get to the computer in different ways by exploiting system vulnerabilities. Once the infection gets to the computer, it alters the settings of the system and displays a full-screen warning whenever the system starts up. This is how all the ransomware infections work, so if your computer is infected with United States Courts virus, do not panic and remove it from the PC.
You may hesitate to do it due the logo of the United States Courts. However, the warning you have on the screen should not be trusted because it has been created by cyber criminals. There are tens of different ransomware infection whose interfaces bear the names of well-known authoritative institutions, including FBI, Interpol, European Cybercrime Centre, Spamhaus, and so on. All those threats that enter the system disguised as legitimate warning sent by the law enforcement agencies should be removed from the computer once it becomes inoperable.
Additionally, it is crucial to ignore the content of the warning. Pay no attention to the statement that some illegally acquired contents have been detected on the PC as no legal institution would take such actions to contact the suspects.
Moreover, disregard the requirement to pay a $300 dollar fine. You are expected to pay the money via MoneyPak, or rather expose a MoneyPak voucher pin code to the crooks behind United States Courts virus:

MoneyPak is a money transaction service which is available only on particular websites; hence, remove the infection using a spyware removal tool if you want to unlock the PC.
Our experts recommend using SpyHunter as this anti-spyware tool can easily terminate the infection and protect the compute against various types of malware. Find our instruction which will help you to install the software properly so that it is not blocked by the infection.
