New Ransomware Making the Rounds

A new malware variant is making its way around that encrypts nearly every type of file on a victim's hard drive. The malware contains a ransom note offering a decryption key to the user for a price. Kaspersky Lab, which discovered the malware, is working on cracking the 1,024-bit RSA encryption code.
