It could also be argued that's what happens when Virus wins!  But seriously, that is horrible, albeit when I looked up the program it has been surprisingly "kind" to actually give you back your access when you pay.  Still a dick move.

I had something similar happen to be a while back.  As I was browsing TPB, suddenly something covering my whole screen appeared saying that my PC had been locked by Canadian secret services and that I should send them 100$ via a very specific brand of prepaid credit cards if I didn't want charges pressed against me and to unlock my PC.  Needless to say, after the initial panic of seeing the FBI and GRC logos, I turned off my PC, did some research on the web using my 3DS' browser, unplugged the internet from my PC, turned it on in safe mode, did a torough cleanup and never ran into that problem since.  I admit I got a little scared at first though.
