Well as it stands today, its asking for 5 Bitcoins. You can find out how much that is on the bitcoin exchange. I decided to keep my encrypted volumes and files and move to a new backup system, buy everyone 4TB external drives. Sasa kila mtu ajitetee.
Seriously whoever came up with the ransom idea after infecting your machine should be shot at several times.

From a video I saw on youtube most of these Ransomwares scan the network for File Share servers, so if you have setup backup folders on a file share, disconnect it.

Ransomware will be the end of Network/Systems engineers. However there is a positive side: Finance Managers (under whom they always place IT) and Management will now listen to IT when they ask for something and not see their budgets as unnecessary OPEX.

Dear skunkers,
I'm tonight fighting this monster. He has locked two servers and several workstations. Anyone that has succeeded without sending a ransom.
Good night
