Abstract
“ Win32/Weelsof is part of a large malware family called ransomware, which is different from your traditional trojans and worms. Ransomware’s main goal is to financially benefit from every infected user and force them to pay.
We included Win32/Weelsof in our November release of the Malicious Software Removal Tool.
