Your PC is just locked.

So What Basically is Ransom Virus or Trojan ?

Ransom is a typical type of virus that locked your PC when your PC is infected. And you can’t do anything until you pay a handsome money to unlock your PC. And the payment is done via Ukash, MoneyPak etc. Prepaid card or bitcoins. There also is a one kind of Ransom virus that encrypt all of your PC data. Its called CryptoLocker. The CryptoLocker Ransom virus is very dangerous. In this case you have only 72 hours to buy the decryption key otherwise the key will be deleted and you will lose all of your PC data.
