Version 4.2 of the TeslaCrypt Ransomware has been released according to TeslaCrypt researcher BloodDolly. This version was released today and contains quite a few modifications to how the program runs. The most notable change, though, is the revamp of the ransom note.  The ransom note, shown below, has been stripped down to basics with only the necessary info to connect to the payment servers.
