I got this virus after downloading free Minecraft account generator. I was looking for this virus, so I had to download and install it but you shouldn't download such shady software. As you can see, such software drops malware on your computer, so don't take the risk. What is more, "You shall not pass" virus notification maybe be a sign of a very dangerous infection. You shall not pass virus fix isn't very difficult but it's not the only problem you have. If you downloaded some free Minecraft software etc., there's a good chance you also got this really nasty infection called Backdoor:Win32/Fynloski.AA. Just a few minutes after I removed the virus, I saw unusual web traffic. This backdoor Trojan was downloaded addition RAT components that were probably necessary to gain access to the compromised system and hide its presence from a security solution. Cyber crooks simply wanted to turn my test machine into a zombie computer, part of a botnet or maybe they wanted so steal sensitive information. One way or another, that's a huge security threat. While Gandalf "You shall not pass" notification might be funny, the other malware that maybe be installed along with it, isn't fanny at all. To remove You shall not pass virus from your computer, please follow the removal guide below. And don't forget to scan your computer with recommend anti-malware software. As I said, the situation may be a lot worse than you think. If you have any questions or suggestions, please leave a comment below. Good luck and be safe online!
