Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus is defined as ransomware, which is essentially malicious software which holds the computer ransom from the user demanding payment in order to allow the user access to the computer. Ransomware software is not a new type of virus, with Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus being one of many ransomware software on the internet. There has been a rise in this type of ransomware software being released over the past year with each ransomware software being similar but in different languages and different payment types (other examples include the Ukash virus, which uses the Ukash instead of MoneyPak for payment). Each version presents itself to the user as a government entity asking for payment for a crime (for this virus, it is the FBI). For the Federal Department of Justice and Police virus, the top line will state “Your PC is blocked due to at least one of the reasons specified below”. The software will then ask for payment through moneypak (which may be unusual for a government agency). In addition, the ransomware will lock the computer to make it inaccessible to the user. The Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus is essentially a scam and should be removed to stop further damage to the computer.
Since the Federal Department of Justice and Police virus locks the computer, the following steps must be followed in order to remove the Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus.
1. The computer will need to be started in safe mode with networking because the computer in inaccessible in regular mode.

Some versions of the malicious software will block safe mode; therefore, the user will need to find a boot cd to attempt a removal.
Once in safe mode with networking, the user can scan for removal of the Federal Department of Justice and Police virus. Below is our recommended removal tool for the Federal Department of Justice and Police Virus. The removal tool has been rated 5 cows out of 5 by Tucows and was previously CNET’s Editor’s Choice.
