"Another case of Windows lockers involved a blackmailer that infected the master boot record. It spread in large numbers all over the Internet and was added to the virus database as Trojan.MBRlock.15. This Trojan horse also displayed a message in English, demanding that users pay 20 euros over one of the most widespread payment systems in Europe in order to unlock their systems."
