[QUOTE="SkvLTD, post: 442465, member: 12855"] And still no idea how exactly since I haven't downloaded anything unusual around the time it happened, nor anything from email (never even open sketchy ones) and unfortunately noticed something being off a little too late - most images, ps files, docs and texts got encrypted with the obvious demand for ransom $. Ironically no pending work got hit, nor most recent stuff I haven't backed up, but this still majorly sucks. I'm sure someone will come up with a means to recovery in the future and I'll back up more often now, but be careful surfing the net guys and gals! What tipped me off was comp slowing down and ~10 COM Surrogate processes running, stopping and running again over-loading the CPU. Figured it was something bad and scheduled a boot scan that nailed the sucker. [/QUOTE]
