I have been using AVAST for the past few years. Everything was fine until yesterday when my computer was attacked by a ransomware.
Below is the message posted all over my folders. All my data files - word, powerpoint, excel, pictures were all encrypted and unable to access.
Not sure how the ransomware get into my computer since it is supposed to be protected by AVAST.
What should I do and how can I recover my files? Can someone help?
Thanks!

All of your files were protected by a strong encryption with AES
More information about the encryption keys using AES can be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AESHow did this happen ?
!!! Specially for your PC was generated personal AES KEY, both public and private.
!!! ALL YOUR FILES were encrypted with the public key, which has been transferred to your computer via the Internet.
!!! Decrypting of your files is only possible with the help of the private key and decrypt program , which is on our Secret Server
What do I do ?
So, there are two ways you can choose: wait for a miracle and get your price doubled, or start obtaining BITCOIN NOW! , and restore your data easy way.
If You have really valuable data, you better not waste your time, because there is no other way to get your files, except make a payment.
