Ransom-Ware
This story was in my local paper and I ran across it online too. I thought it be a good idea to share what hackers are starting to do now. As if Spyware wasn't bad enough to kill your files, as if viruses were not bad enough to kill everything, hackers can now lock your own computer files and demand money in order to have them open again.

Heh. Yeah, go ahead and demand a random, then watch him get arrested by the FBI for cyberterrorism 2 minutes later.
