Windows заблокирован virus is a ransomware infection that blocks you from accessing your desktop. When you get infected with this malware, the only thing that you see on your screen once your Windows loads is the following message:
Windows заблокирован!
Microsoft Security обнаружил нарушения использования сети интернет.
Причина: Просмотр ДЕТСКОГО и гей порно, посещение порно-сайтов.
Для разблокировки Windows необходимо:
Пополнить номер абонента БИЛАЙН: 8-906-418-29-47 на сумму 500 руб.
Although the manifestation is slightly different from the rest of ransomware infections, Windows заблокирован virus is a Ukash Virus group application that targets computer users in the Russian Federation. Unlike other Ukash infections such as Police National Francaise Virus, GVU Virus, FBI MoneyPak Virus and others, this new infection does not require you to send your money via Ukash, PaySafeCard or any other alternative payment system. Instead, Windows заблокирован virus tells you to replenish the credit of a pre-paid phone number by 500 rubles.
According to Windows заблокирован virus, once you transfer the money into that phone number account, your computer will be unlocked. If you fail to pay the fine within 12 hours, the infection threatens to ruin your Windows and Bios. Although the infection accuses you of watching child and gay pornography (which is why, as it claims, your computer has been locked), Windows заблокирован virus does not say anything about possible criminal charges, as other Ukash infections.
It is obvious why you have been infected with Windows заблокирован virus – the infection wants money and money only. Therefore, if you transfer the fee as the ransomware program requires, you will most probably not be able to get your money back, because this is not a bank transaction, and such transfers are really hard to track.
You have to understand that you have not done anything wrong, and the message on your screen is displayed because you have been infected with malware. Windows заблокирован virus is generally distributed by Trojans, although it is also possible that rootkits have been used to infect you with ransomware as well.
