Got a call from a friend this morning running linuxlite 2.8x64.

The chrome browser was frozen with ransomeware.

He told me openly he had been at some "Adult Sites"

He does not have sudo access to the system...Only I have.

First thought was to remove chrome and re-install the browser.

Decided in the end to reformat and install Linuxlite 3.2

Not something you see every Day.
