.ecc Extension: Trojan ? Can't Seem To Delete Them ? Help please
Hello,
I received an eMail from a friend who said that any file with an .ecc extension is
one of those Crypto ransom ware trojans.
True ?
My old PC7 PC was wiped out, literally, a few months ago, so I am
literally paranoid about this.
Used Agent Ransack to search for *.ecc and found over a thousand of them.
I tried deleting them from Agent Ransack directly by selecting (they turn blue) them and
doing a delete, but they keep reappearing: they don't seem to be deleted.
They do not appear in the Recycle bin. Why ?
What is happening, please ?
a. How can I definitely and permanently delete these over a thousand .ecc extension files ?
Way too many to do individually.
b. Why do they keep re-appearing ?
c. I'm using the paid vers. of BitDefender, but apparently it did not find anything wrong
Would really and truly appreciate any help, what to do, what is going on, etc.
Thanks ,
Bob
