Trojan.MBRlock is usually distributed through the use of fake adult websites but cyber criminals can potentially infect your computer through other means, or even trick you into downloading the malware. We all know that viruses and malicious software are nasty things that can do all sorts of damage to your machine. Any attempt to restore the MBR using standard MBR recovery tools may lead to data loss. Besides, re-installing Windows won't help either because it doesn't fix the MBR. Resetting system time won't help too. Both, the original MBR and the unlock code are usually encrypted.
In a typical Trojan.MBRlock ransomware scenario you'll get a message alerting that your were watching certain types of prohibited pornography. The message text may display in both English and Russian. However, I stumble upon Russian ransomware a lot more often then other examples of such malicious software. Here's an example of what the fake Trojan.MBRlock message looks like:
Внимание! Ваш ПК заблокирован за просмотр и распространение порнографии с участием несовершеннолетних, элементами насилия, зоофилии. Для разблокировки, Вам необходимо оплатить штраф в размере 500 рублей в любом терминале оплаты.
Выберите на экране терминала категорию "Электронные деньги", "Webmoney" и т.д.
Найдите эмблему платежной системы WebMoney.
Найдите номер R кошелька (12 цифр) - 079030161849
Внесите сумму 500 рублей. Внимание: учитывайте комиссию терминала.
По завершению оплаты, на выданном терминалом чеке оплаты, Вам будет выдан персональный код, после ввода которого, Ваш ПК будет автоматически разблокирован. Любые попытки разблокировки, без оплаты и ввода персонального кода, приведут к уничтожению операционной системы.
Very often Trojan.MBRlock infections share certain characteristics: phone numbers, short codes, WebMoney and cash-in points. There are numerous web pages where you can enter the phone number and the short code given by the Trojan.MBRlock ransomware to get the unlock code. There's a chance that security vendors have already tested this ransomware and debugged the unlock code. Here are some websites that will hopefully help you to unlock your computer:
