The virus posts a lot of error messages that say your hard drive is failing, etc. Then, you are blocked from getting into your files and most of your icons disappear. A popup screen has a little Microsoft flag in the corner and it says it is a "System Fix." It is impossible to delete the popup. The screen directs you to do some security scans. Then it says it cannot fix the system. It says you need to buy an enhanced version of the program. The victim orders the program by entering in their credit card number and secret code. Nothing happens. The victim has sent in their personal ID to the hacker. This program caught my wife and she sent in the credit card info. The virus eventually trashed her hard drive. We replaced the hard drive and notified the credit people.
I did not know about Rosie's problem when I encountered the virus. I noticed the little Microsoft flag icon was not correct when I saw the popup. This told me there was something hokey happening. I did not send any info and this evening I did a lot of scans, quarantines, and removal with Webroot. I think I have cleared it from the system. The computer works, sort of, and there has been a lot of damage.
This is a common virus. Folks at my job have encountered it, too. I have no idea where I am getting these viruses and there is no one at fault on Landracing.com, I am sure. Hopefully this info will help you recognize the virus if your computer gets infected. Modern life. Isn't it fun?
