    How the hell did this happen man. That .merl is not simple malware, it's ransomware. First advice i bumped into is:

    If you also do e-banking, have paypal and other e-wallet accounts, check them thoroughly and change passwords asap (on a different, not compromised computer) because you may have been further compromised.
    Hope you fix it, that is a nasty bitch of a virus.
