I found an Anti-Ransomware beta program from Malwarebytes that you might want to check out. thumbsup

Does anybody know of any other anti-ransomware programs out there?

It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

Thanks Joe. I just had a friend get infected with ransomeware today from someone pretending to be HP Printer repair. They want 500 dollars to undo it. frown

I'll move this to Glitches where the techhies hang out. They may know more.

I heard about this and it is great news. I hope they are able to bundle it with their current software.

Many AV or Security Software has this feature already built in ex: the latest Kaspersky Internet Security has it and I am sure a lot more companies have it, check your existing AV or Security software to see if it has it.
