    This is cryptolocker.

    If you do no have a good working backup, your files are very likely gone. Best to re-image the machine. This malware uses unbreakable encryption.

    For extra protection, make sure you're running the IPS, firewall, and SONAR components as well as download insight.

    Whatever you do, it is advised to NOT pay the ransom as the chances of you getting your files back are still very small.
