Where did I get the Troj/Urelas-Q?

Standard tactics of Troj/Urelas-Q distribution are basic for all other ransomware examples. Those are one-day landing web pages where users are offered to download and install the free software, so-called bait e-mails and hacktools. Bait emails are a pretty modern method in malware distribution – you get the email that simulates some regular notifications about shipments or bank service conditions changes. Within the email, there is a malicious MS Office file, or a web link which leads to the exploit landing site.

Malicious email spam

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

Preventing it looks fairly uncomplicated, but still needs a lot of awareness. Malware can hide in different places, and it is far better to stop it even before it goes into your system than to trust in an anti-malware program. General cybersecurity awareness is just an essential thing in the modern world, even if your relationship with a PC remains on YouTube videos. That may keep you a lot of time and money which you would certainly spend while searching for a fixing guide.
