We noticed that ransomware attempts to block websites that publish various how-to guides for computer users. It is evident that by restricting specific domains, the crooks are trying to prevent the victim from reaching relevant and helpful ransomware-attack-related information online. These two files are called bowsakkdestx. This threat has a lengthy list of capabilities, such as:.
So, if your files got encrypted with an online decryption key, which is totally distinct. The sad reality is that it is impossible to decrypt the files without the unique key. In case if Miia worked in online mode, it is impossible for you to gain access to the AES key.
It is stored on a remote server owned by the criminals who distibute the Miia virus. To obtain the payment details, the victims are encouraged by the message to contact the frauds by email manager mailtemp. However, stay away from paying the ransom! I definitely recommend that you do not contact these crooks and do not pay. The one of the most real working solution to recover the lost data — just using the available backups, or use Decrypter tool.
The peculiarity of all such viruses apply a similar set of actions for generating the unique decryption key to recover the ciphered data. The only solution to prevent the loss of your valuable data is to regularly make backups of your crucial files. Note that even if you do maintain such backups regularly, they ought to be put into a specific location without loitering, not being connected to your main workstation. For instance, the backup may be kept on the USB flash drive or some alternative external hard drive storage.
Optionally, you may refer to the help of online cloud information storage. Needless to mention, when you maintain your backup data on your common device, it may be similarly ciphered as well as other data. For this reason, locating the backup on your main computer is surely not a wise idea.
N evertheless, these are the common leaks through which it may be injected into your PC:. There were cases when the Miia virus was disguised as some legitimate tool, for example, in the messages demanding to initiate some unwanted software or browser updates.
This is typically the way how some online frauds aim to force you into installing the Miia ransomware manually, by actually making you directly participate in this process. Surely, the bogus update alert will not indicate that you are going to actually inject the virus. This installation will be concealed under some alert mentioning that allegedly you should update Adobe Flash Player or some other dubious program whatsoever.
Of course, the cracked apps represent the damage too. Using P2P is both illegal and may result in the injection of serious malware, including the Miia ransomware. To sum up, what can you do to avoid the injection of the Miia ransomware into your device? You must be cautious while installing free software today. Make sure you always read what the installers offer in addition to the main free program. Stay away from opening dubious email attachments. Do not open files from the unknown addressees.
Of course, your current security program must always be updated. The malware does not speak openly about itself. It will not be mentioned in the list of your available programs. However, it will be masked under some malicious process running regularly in the background, starting from the moment when you launch your PC. There is no better way to recognize, remove and prevent ransomware than to use an anti-malware software from GridinSoft 6.
When setup file has finished downloading, double-click on the setup-antimalware-fix. GridinSoft Anti-Malware will automatically start scanning your computer for Miia infections and other malicious programs. This process can take a minutes, so I suggest you periodically check on the status of the scan process.
When the scan has finished, you will see the list of infections that GridinSoft Anti-Malware has detected. There is a really little number of security tools that are able to be set up on the USB drives, and antiviruses that can do so in most cases require to obtain quite an expensive license.
It has a days cost-free trial mode that offers the entire features of the paid version 7. Try removing. Either the Miia virus read and did not encrypt the file, or it bugged and did not add the filemarker. Please, let me know in comments if that will work for you. The newest extensions released around the end of August after the criminals made changes. This includes Hudf , Shgv , Yjqs , etc. Start downloading the decryption tool.
Make sure to launch the decryption utility as an administrator. You need to agree with the license terms that will come up.
As soon as you accept the license terms, the main decryptor user interface comes up:. Based on the default settings, the decryptor will automatically populate the available locations in order to decrypt the currently available drives the connected ones , including the network drives.
Decryptors normally suggest several options considering the specific malware family. The current possible options are presented in the Options tab and can be activated or deactivated there. You may locate a detailed list of the currently active Options below. Note that the main screen may turn you to a status view, letting you know of the active process and the decryption statistics of your data:.
The decryptor will notify you as soon as the decryption procedure is completed. Note that it is also possible to copy it directly to your clipboard and to paste it into emails or messages here if you need to do so. The Emsisoft Decryptor might display different messages after a failed attempt to restore your miia files:. Miia ransomware encryption mechanism feature is next: it encrypts every file byte-by-byte, then saves a file copy, deleting and not overriding!
Hence, the information of the file location on the physical disk is lost, but the original file is not deleted from the physical disk. The cell, or the sector where this file was stored, can still contain this file, but it is not listed by the file system and can be overwritten by data that has been loaded to this disk after the deletion.
Hence, it is possible to recover your files using special software. Anyway, after realizing it was an online algorithm, it is impossible to retrieve my encrypted files. I also had my backup drive plugged in at the time of the virus, and this was also infected, or so I thought. If the process is command. New option in the wizard allows you to choose whether static text displayed on the dialog is centred or left-aligned. Activate, and the activate option within a Run field, have been extended to allow exact match of window title.
See the appropriate wizard pages. For consistency with the Wait field, the character to denote this is "! Note that key repeat will not occur if a key is "held down" by KeyText. The "Include Clipboard, selection etc " wizard option lets you set this up. A hotkey associated with an item is now turned off while the item is running. For example, to trap the F1 function key in Notepad only — but allow it to operate normally for every other application — use an item with hotkey F1, and starting as follows:.
Also note that if a KeyText dialog is up eg , Settings, Edit text items and a hotkey associated with any item is pressed, if KeyText is not the foreground window the hotkey will be passed through. In the above example, this means that KeyText would not trap the F1 if it had a dialog up. If there was none, KeyText used the Alt 0nnn numeric keypad method of entering such characters. Reason for change An example. This inconsistency is not experienced with the Alt 0nnn method.
The Edit window below the wizard is now hidden when dragging the target to select a mouse location. In addition a new checkbox "Hide wizard while dragging target" has been added, to allow the full screen to be viewed when selecting mouse target. The wizard will appear again when the mouse button is released.
A similar checkbox and functionality are available on the "If pixel color " wizard page when dragging the color dropper. Also the delay after an item has finished is reduced. Reduced the occurrence of the "No window has keyboard focus" error; items may therefore now interact with the desktop. Selecting "Edit text items" in the right-click menu will now take you to the last edit point or item A , the first time. If the Edit text items window is not open and no KeyText dialogs are open it will open the Edit window at your last edit point.
If the Edit text items window or any KeyText dialog is open but not in the foreground, it will be brought to the front. And if the Edit text items window is open and at the front, it will save and close - as if OK is pressed. New checkbox on the dialog "Text contains field s which require the action "Macro" to work. Changing now. The character limit in the "Set schedule" dialog for an "On window" schedule remains at 80; however, if not doing a "Match whole of title" search it will now search for the specified text in the first characters of the window title previously Timings are approximate, as they depend on the system clock rate.
Note that the timer starts counting down each time the item starts — and that the "Minutes" interval time has been changed to match this; previously it started timing from each time the item finished.
This should mean that the item starts at approximately the scheduled intervals. KeyText now checks the process name before running an item which is set to Action :Paste , as not all applications accept a Ctrl-V for paste. For most applications this will make no difference, but there are a few applications which distinguish between Return and Enter.
These new fields can be added using the Macro Control section of the Insert field wizard. The Organizer window now has buttons for Group names and Manage variables. In addition, the list of items can be sorted by the column headers this does not affect the actual order of items — just the display. This gives the easiest way of seeing which items have trigger text associated with them — sort on Trigger text.
In the Key combination wizard, if Enter is "added", the key button remained pressed. Did not work correctly in a dual monitor setup where monitor 2 was on the left. Integer variables have been implemented, and are seen as an expert feature — and therefore not available through the Insert field wizard; they must be entered manually. Each macro can make use of integer variables a, b, c There is also a special assignment to assist in date manipulation:.
In all cases the result of the calculation is assigned to the left-hand operand. Special formats are available to convert integers into date information. For example, if variable m is Similarly " ddd " and " dddd " will give the weekday name associated with the number, where 0 is Sunday, and D will give 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc. Local variables a-z can be associated with global variables whose values are stored and can be accessed by any item from any KeyText data.
The first time this is used, a global variable with the name Counter will be set up, with the current value of n. Once the global variable exists, the above field would set n to the value stored in Counter. When a macro with an association to a global variable ends, the global variable is updated with the current value of the local variable.
For example, say you want a macro to generate a filename which includes a counter which increments on each use.
On first use this would type data The next time it is used it would type data You can manage global variables through the "Manage variables" option in the KeyText Organizer. This allows you to view — and change — the current value, and also optionally set a reset value and specify that the variable should be reset to this:. If, in the above example, you wanted a filename which showed the month, and then a counter which was reset to 1 on the 1st day of each month, you could use:.
In April this would generate Options are: month, dayofweek , dayofyear , day, hour12, hour, minute, second. Again, note that if you assign a new value to a random number variable, it breaks the association with random numbers. So, for example,. KeyText allows the use of string variables which, in conjunction with regular expressions gives powerful string manipulation abilities.
A minimum of 2 characters is required and trailing spaces are ignored. The symbol can only be used at the end of the variable name, and denotes that the string variable is global.
That is - it can be used by any item, and from any instance of KeyText. Global variables are stored in a special encrypted file called KeyText. A password can be set to prevent the global variables from being changed. The intention of this is to allow network users to share a single gsv file, while restricting the ability to change it.
For example, say a company has a featured product of the day, which is set every morning. A user with password access could set a global variable ProductOfTheDay to the featured product name, set it to prevent changes, and then every user could have access to it - and it could be referenced in a number of different items. Note that the scope of a local as opposed to global string variable is the current item, and any items directly called by that item.
The string contents assigned to a string variable can be up to characters long. The Input method above can be set up in the Insert Field Wizard display a message or ask for user input section. Note the difference between Ask and Input. When an item is started, KeyText scans for Ask questions - and asks them at the start.
