In my registry, open startup, this always appears, even after deleting it: GoogleChromeAutoLaunch[random string of numbers]--no-startup-window /prefetch:5. Apparently, it's related to the Ransom.Erebus.A virus. However, your files are supposed to be encrypted, and your browser is supposed to open to a phishing site upon reboot. However, this isn't happening. I got this virus from torrenting. The only thing that's happening is Google Chrome starting up on reboot. I disabled from Task Manager. I need help really badly. I might not seem serious, but I still need to fix it. Even after deleting my account and making a new one, it's still there (obviously).
