Change the links so people can't click on them.

And how do I do that?

Removing them works, and Malwarebytes got it (I think) so no need for reference.

Pity Avast doesn't catch it, but on the other hand they did tell me how to get rid of it so even money. Lost a lot od data, but I didn't have to get out the shotgun (re-install Windows), so overall a plus.

Thanks for the help.

To nitpic on that Eddy, most AV vendor will have trojan as part of the detection name since it usually arrive disguised as something else, like a fake mail attachment (the ransomware downloader)  and the payload file (the actual ransomware)
