Just got this omnious notice on my computer while scanning porn website - notice claims to be an official US Dept. of Justice notice that I have violated some federal statute by accessing website and that my computer has been locked down, pending payment of a $300 "fine" to this site.  Payment must be within 48 hours via MoneyPak (prepaid card) or I would face prosecution and my computer permanently disabled.  I cannot get control of my user site, but can switch users and utilize my computer,

 

Anybody familiar with this - is it legitimate? 
It's fake. Right click the green (W) Webroot icon in the bottom-right of the screen > Save scan log

Look at the last 50 lines and paste any that says "Monitoring" in a message here.

 

Or just open a ticket, explain your problem, and paste the last 50 lines into the support window. Trust me they don't care where you've been, you're actually doing them a favor letting them know about your problem.

If you can, go to http://virustotal.com and submit the following file. (You can just paste this into the box at the bottom of the dialogue that comes up when you select a file)

C:UsersOwnerAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsTemplatesDircxtX.exe

Please paste the URL of the result webpage that comes up.

 

Open WSA > PC Security gear icon > Block/Allow Files >

Find "DircxtX.exe" in the list and click the "Block" circle.

 

Then go back to your other profile.

 

This is just a temporary thing until Webroot replies to your ticket.
Went to virustotal.com website and tried to paste C:UsersOwnerAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsTemplatesDircxtX.exe on file name box, but got message that it is not correct path.

Did I miss a step here?

Just upload the file on VT from that Directory! C:UsersOwnerAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsTemplatesDircxtX.exe

 

HTH,

 

Daniel


Sorry, real non-techie here, but how do I upload the file onto VT?  The only option seems to be "choosing a file", which opens up to my documents list, which has the scan log.  Do I need to get somewhere else on the computer to upload the file, or am I using the wrong file (Directory! C:UsersOwnerAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsTemplatesDircxtX.exe) ?
I checked the MD5 of both files on VT and came up with nothing so it's best to just contact support from the link above.

 

Thanks,

 

Daniel
