    I was careless enough to be struck by this scam. Main effect is that no programs will execute. Running a McFee scan appears to be working but this program fires up a sub-program for each file scan – launching that program fails!! Malwarebytes also would not startup.

    Had to reboot in SAFE MODE to run Malwarebytes and remove it – fortunately I already had it installed.

    Found this site after I got back on line – thanks for your info – I will now bookmark your webpage.

    Merry Xmas
