Recently one of my Friends computer was affected by the So called "FBI Virus"
We did tried all the possible steps, Like restarting the system, she got a Desktop, With Windows-7 Os,
When ever she turns on the system, it allows her to log into her account, but the moment she logs in, the entire screen get occupied with the page asking to pay $300, and it says FBI Money Pack Virus.
Its not allowing to get into Safe Mode, Safe mode with networking , Safe mode with command promt, no nothing happens.
