Programmers Help! CERBER3 Virus! by jayplect(op): 9:21am On Sep 24, 2016
Please help resolve this programmers in d house.
One virus infected my pc two days ago and rendered all my documents unaccessible. Its called cerber3. I believe it was from one mail i got from a foreign country. I have searched for solutions to decrypt but all was futile. I did system restore but no success. The closest i ever came was with a ransomware app but its passworded and i was required to fill an online survey but unfortunately the survey is not available to this region .. Pls house help me for solution as the thought of losing all my documents sends shivers into my spine.

Sounds like a ransomware. I get at least 3 - 5 of those emails daily.....

I read about it and it's a ransomware that encrypts files using AES-256 encryption.... Meaning it's almost impossible and not feasible to crack it..... You would need to pay them to recover your files or simply recover them from a backup after cleaning the computer
