@remostalin -
This could also be malware (i.e. virus) exhibiting symptoms similar to ransomware.
There are a couple of ways to remedy this situation. Both have pros and cons.
1) What AV and FW are you using? Be very specific.
2) Do you have a recent, restorable backup of your entire system?
This is also worth considering if you can get in deep enough:
