Default Re: Need some PC help here PLEASE

That is correct what George says, it appears to be a new virus that started earlier this month.
The powers that be are are working on a program to reverse the encryption.
Google .rrk and see what it says, they say that you can pay a ransome, but how, how much I do not know. I would not want to pay someone for screwing me around that's for sure.
Do you remember downloading a PDF file lately?
Do you have any back ups stored? What anti virus software are you using?
I think I would be waiting for the fix.
Update
There is a fix, go to
bleepingcomputer.com and download the program, the program is not finalized just yet, maybe tomorrow?
The answers lie on pages 3 and 4.
