I had never heard of the term RansomWare before this thread. Interestingly, in this month's Wired Magazine (Aug. 2005), under Jargon Watch, there is another definition of RansomWare: "Internet extortion software that, when downloaded, encrypts the contents of your hard drive. The parties responsible demand payment to decrypt your data."
