Apparently, Cryptowall Ramsonware uses Tor network to connect to the hidden malicious servers. I believe folks should care about this matter!

Or it is only necessary that the Tor network works in order to reach file sharing and torrent websites blocked by ISP company?

This is a serious question .. Could anybody explain what should be/could be done about this issue?

This is a serious concern and question as far as I am concerned.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but it is impossible to create an anonymizing network that identifies and filters the bad from the good traffic. Anyone can use the network to transmit any data they want.

Since the issue is that people get their computers infected with malware, what should be done about it is mostly education. On how to prevent it, how to detect it, how to minimize the damage.
