If you would exercise great caution when going to the Net everything will be fine.
Or just don't accept suspicious emails at all. Especially from your friends that got their account hacked or should I say, friends that don't act like themselves. _________________ "You call THAT armor?" - German Tank Destroyer

If you just update Windows, you have no need to worry. In fact, this is the least profitable cryptoware attack that's been this widespread. Most of them grab 7 plus figures. This one will barely hit six.
It's easy to avoid: don't be a brainless gob. _________________ KGR | AT

This is kinda old. Honestly, you have to be pretty silly to even get your pc infected, nevermind to fall for ransomware. Get yourself a Hiren's bootdisk and chill.
Case in point: I haven't had trouble with a single virus on Windows XP in years. _________________ "Don't beg for things; Do it yourself or you'll never get anything." QUICK_EDIT

Well, I use my Redmi 2 to surf the internet, and post here in PPM...
My modem broke quite a few years back, and I'm W7, so I don't need to worry... _________________ all my posts before 2020 were made by a 13 year-old, forgive these if you see any, thank you QUICK_EDIT
Don't: (for your safety)
- use internet explorer
- outdated patches for windows 7 or early
- any medium or light anti malware
- connect to the internet until it is gone
I recommend:
- disable internet connection on PC only
- use IOBit's malware fighter and ASC at least version 10, malware fighter pro holds bitdefender that takes down several ransomwares like wannacry ransomware, bitdefender could also delete threats from softonic applications, they are not trusted.
Trust me on this to work, i am on android phone since i joined. _________________ If you are a MetalHead (Heavy Metal Fan) and don't want to be a metalhead, Just remove your metal ball from your head. �:p .

Especially for Win7, Microsoft Security Essentials (now Windows Defender on Win8 and Win10) is very good when it comes to finding viruses and malware. Just recently it caught a piece of malware sneaking into my laptop and quarantined it on the spot. It may have been WannaCryptor, but I'm not sure.
Still, though, get antimalware if you can. Malwarebytes and Spyhunter are two of the best antimalwares to get, and they're both free to download (just don't try to get them both. One of them's going to kick the other out, guaranteed). _________________ "I'm grade-A, 100%, prime-cut final boss! I'm going to take over the world any day now!"

IOBit's Malware Fighter is also extremely excellent, unlike SuperAntiSpyware, SuperAntiSpyware detects all unsure-trust files, even if they are really trusted, like Trojan.Generic.GameCheat files, they are not threats but friendly trojan horses, IOBit Malware Fighter although its Pro version is not free, it could take down several threats we all know well like EternalBlue and WannaCry, even Red Installer XYZ (i had that adware before from ultimate downloader), also some harmful cookies like Rubiconproject cookies (i had those harmful cookies 1 weeks ago).
