Scottsdale-based IT support company Jupiter Support today warned users of a growing threat to their computer's integrity—ransomware. Ransomware is a form of malware that can infect and lock out areas of a PC from the user until they pay a sum of money to regain access. Whether a small sum like $34 or even thousands of dollars, online crooks have taken to this scam like a duck to water—and it is the average computer user who is suffering.
