It attacked my work computer, and that computer never goes places it shouldn't.
My computer would not function at all. It reurned a file error message to any command.
The IT guy was able to gain remote acces, and repair it, The repair took him hours. I have no idea what had to be done.

Why cannot the people who launch these things be proscecuted? When the infection tells you to buy "protection" from a certain vendor or source, its like the mob telling you to buy protection from them. Shouldn't the vendors who sell the fix be investigated? They seem to have a rather vested interest in the issue.
