lechiffre virus - anyone?

Anyone else seen the Lechiffre variant of the cryptolocker ransomware recently?

It puts the .lechiffre extension onto all files in use and any in network shares, as well as encrypting them.

(Casino Royale was on TV a couple of days ago too).

Do you have it or what?

If it's finsihed processing, only way out of it is to recover from backup, but you need backups obviously.

I've dealt with Cryptolocker and it's variants on medium networks. Didn't pay them, backups were sufficient.

There were a few strains where they gave out the keys, unlikely to be yours, anyway you can enquire at:

Not personally, just saw it twice at independent sites so I wondered if it was making a comeback. Cleared it up with a restore and various scans show it's not resident.
