I wouldn't pay unless the files are EXTREMELY valuable. 1.5 btc is almost a thousand dollars. In the worst case where you cannot decrypt those files you could contact the laptop mfg and reload the system from scratch. Probably an available download for free even and then forensically wipe the disk before installing the new system. It would only take a few hours to have a fresh new system disk. If important files are backed up on a flash or external drive those can be copied back easily. Do NOT connect any removable media to that infected computer. This is what I do, so if you need a few steps in the process to be outlined, please ask here.
I'll try it.Thanks for all reply's
Hi. Ive registered in your community in hope that youll help me. My problem is that my wifes 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. 
So finally I decided to pay 1.5 BTC for encryption, but I dont 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.
And last question why cant I pay with my dollar card? What is a reason for them to use Bitcoins? I dont get it.
