New fast-spreading virus destroys PCs
What do you think about this?
Since it's extremely difficult to get rid of, the best way to protect yourself
from Rombertik is to avoid it altogether. You can do that by knowing how to
spot phishing emails so you don't open them. Click here to see a phishing email

If your computer is infected by Rombertik, you'll likely lose valuable data. If
the malware successfully deletes the MBR file on your computer, you will have
to reinstall the Windows operating system.
