Yet another scam I'm afraid. A page appears on your computer from the Metropolitan Police e-crime Unit claiming you visited an illegal website, your computer has been locked and you need to pay ukash £100 to unlock it.
A nasty virus this. I couldn't get into the computer even in safe mode to run a virus scan, so had to reomove the hard drive to another computer and run a scan from there. Removed the virus Ok, but it had infected some windows system files which had to be replaced manually. Call me if you need help.
