So I've been a member for several years, and I had been doing pretty good with my two home windows PC. that is until this morning when my Lenovo laptop got hit by ransomware. Fun, fun, fun. So I'm BACK!

Everyone thanks. In answer to some of the questions:
TwinHeadedEagle is helping me on my nasty little bug. Dept of Justice ransomware, locks up about everything except command line.
Been relying on MS Security Essentials, and use Malwarebytes and CCleaner.
Maybe I should really, really consider some alternatives and even Firefox.
Guess I've been lucky for a couple of years,although I am generally pretty careful about where I go.
thanks all

Hey, thanks everybody. Were still working on this dept of justice bug. There are reports of it going back several years. But this also could be a new code just still wearing the same screen identity. We will see. A step at a time.
