    Hey thanks for the update zonie. Hopefully the solution to the encryption won't be hard to come by if this spreads as well as its earlier versions.

    FireEye.com has a free tool available to decrypt files for victims of this pest. You can read about it here, and the page contains links to the tool.

    There is a direct download at the botom of the article. I plan on adding it to my tools to be ready in case there is a need. Hope the other comapnies get their updates out to catch it. Thanks Nilco Iste. I like to pass on things when possible to help others out.
