CryptoLocker Prevention Script for Kaseya

Script downloads utility called CryptoPrevent from FoolishIT.com,  which when run blocks apps from running from %appdata%, %localappdata%, %programdata% and %userprofile% directories. Protects execution from the startup folder and recycle bin. It also blocks .exe files when opening inside a zip, rar, 7z files, opened from the %LocalTemp% directory. Script writes to script log if successful.   XP Computers REQUIRE A REBOOT!

Blocking is based on best practices that have been discussed on multiple forums.

PLEASE carefully test this script, it BLOCKS applications from running in these directories and may impact good programs.  We also have an UN-protect script in the event you need to reverse it.
