Crypto Virus Remdy?

by Mr_Sheerdil Apr 29, 2014 4:01PM PDT

Hi all,
My PC got affected by Crypto Locker Virus(I think so).
Also started this thread http://forums.cnet.com/7723-19411_102-616848/files-encrypted-and-access-denied/?tag=tracked-disc;track-616848.
Where no solution could be found.
So all be aware of this. Take backup of your files and also make shadow copy of files.

Also anybody having any thought on recovering encrypted files as the virus had been removed, but my files are still encrypted.

Did you ask drivesavers.com or Symantec?

Sometimes you must make those calls.
