Hi. I’ve registered in your community in hope that you’ll help me. My problem is that my wife’s laptop is infected with Odin virus that has encrypted all files. And now it claims for 1.5 BTC for encryption. I tried different tools, antiviruses, guides etc. One thing that had helped me was ShadowExplorer (http://www.shadowexplorer.com/downloads.html) which I found in this site (http://myspybot.com/odin-virus/), and with a help of it I managed to decrypt little bit of files, but not very important. Sad
So finally I decided to pay 1.5 BTC for encryption, but I don’t know how, where and when I can buy this crypto currency. So I hope that you can give me some advice's or provide with a link to a step-by-step guide on how to use BTC. Huh Huh
And last question – why can’t I pay with my dollar card? What is a reason for them to use Bitcoins? I don’t get it. Undecided
