It depends on how they "lock" the folder.  If they encrypt it, then you would need software that knows how to unencrypt it.  If they lock it by setting permissions, you might be able to boot from another OS or a BartPE disc to get access to the folder.
Restore your backup copies.
Delete the problem files.

This looks like junk software from a fly-by-night hacker.
The web site is on a free host.  No credentials or bio.
The site currently is down.

You can try the wayback machine, but the e-mail address looks like a dead-end.
