Do Not Panic And Stay Calm
Despite the warnings, it is important to stay calm and not panic. You can easily protect yourself from the “Rombertik” Trojan. Everyone can easily protect themselves from the virus by always distrusting emails from unknown senders, with unclean or grossly incorrect grammar or suspicious phrasing, and deleting them unread if in doubt. Children, you should remember that unknown attachments from emails with unknown senders should never be opened. You should also not simply click on links in unknown emails, but simply delete these emails. If you then also have a good Anti-virus program installed on your computer, hardly anything can happen.
