Where did I get the Ransom:Win32/Conti!mclg?

Common ways of Ransom:Win32/Conti!mclg distribution are basic for all other ransomware variants. Those are one-day landing websites where users are offered to download and install the free program, so-called bait emails and hacktools. Bait e-mails are a quite modern strategy in malware spreading – you get the email that simulates some routine notifications about deliveries or bank service conditions changes. Within the email, there is a corrupted MS Office file, or a link which leads to the exploit landing page.

Malicious email message. This one tricks you to open the phishing website.

Avoiding it looks quite easy, but still needs a lot of recognition. Malware can hide in various spots, and it is far better to prevent it even before it gets into your computer than to trust in an anti-malware program. Simple cybersecurity awareness is just an essential thing in the modern-day world, even if your relationship with a computer remains on YouTube videos. That may save you a lot of money and time which you would certainly spend while trying to find a solution.
