the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on 09-21-2007. Is there a virus running around Cdot? Because I have had my anti-virus software tell me three times today and ONLY on this site that it has detected and got rid of a virus called "Downloader." Anyone else had this issue at all? It's starting to freak me out.....:wtf: Should I do anything about it or? :confused: Rating: 5

I would suspect it is tied to one of the animated advertisements, the usual culprit ... :smokin:

...it probably started growing in the 'dro forum....

I just got the message. Avast gave me a warning about a Trojan Horse type virus called 'downloader'.

Anyone who does not have killbox should get it BTW...

There was a post in the grow section today, don't remember what it was about, but it had links to a couple of files to download and unzip to view an MP3.

Did anyone who is getting the warnings happen to download any of those files?

PC :smokin:

And are you guys running Firefox? I'm running firefox but haven't had an anti-virus open in MONTHS since I don't download like I used to and I don't surf weird parts of the net.

Never thought I'd get it from cannabis.com, and I'm not sure if I have. The past couple of days, my computer has been running extra hard. Damn...I bet I got a virus.

It was kind of odd PC because I wasn't downloading anything at the times that it happened....merely surfing and it was several different threads from different people.....which may mean nothing.... :wtf:

PS...I run Norton btw, and SpySweeper.

Don't have to advertise Linux- it just works...:thumbsup:

But don't worry, we'll get around to makin' it cuddly one of these days...

Hey, are folks who are seeing this running w/ javascript enabled?

Ive been very lucky about stuff like that. I run my virus scan at least once a week. I think the last problem I had with viruses was a stupid trojan.

It's enabled....but not open, like in chat or something....:jointsmile:
