evertking Reviewed by evertking on 09-23-2007. 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

Quite possible you can nuke it using the program 'killbox'. You should be able to download it somewhere.

it's my belief that this site is devoted to infecting my computers with every nasty little bug ever invented and that you're all in on it. of course, i also believe that there is a little man living in my computer that secretly logs on to asian porn sites while i'm asleep, so you might think twice before lending much credence to anything i have to say.



oh, and janis told me she needed a break, hence her absence from my avatar.

being a computer tech, I run all the 'protection programs' ... my Spy Sweeper was catching a 'spyware' app. trying to access, not the bad Downloader Trojans ... there IS a guy in here currently that is 'scavenging e-mail addresses' from our Forums ... I suspect he is simply reading the boards for posted addresses, but there is a possibility he is running a 'Phish-type program' to gather addresses (he has my brand-new address, that I only gave to 3 trusted people :wtf: ) ... unlikely, as I suspect he's not that smart, and he's trying to sell MOM, harmless enough ... :smokin:

I noticed a "downloader.exe" file, this morning. It wasn't running, though, and, I watched it for a couple seconds, then ended it.

Time to run my anti-virus programs, again. :gunfighter2:
