Am I the only one that hadn't heard of this until today?!?!?!?!?

PC Virus 'Time Bomb' Set to Go Off at Any Moment

 

I'm not clicking that...... And no I never heard of it either and I'd like to keep it that way.

 

i didnt hear of it until today either.....sounds like a deusey!!!

good luck fellow DBers!

 

1) Keep your anti-virus software updated.
2) Run all Windows security updates.
3) Do not click on it if you don't know what it is or who it's from!

Follow these three rules and you will stay in good shape and should stay out of it's path.

Mac users realy don't have these issues since most of these things are geared towards Windows users.

 

One thing i did learn about it is that it doesn't effect MAC's, only PC computers.

 

They said it doesn't infect others by what you do on pc - the worm goes on its own know matter what. I think i got it cause i tried to go to the microsoft website and couldn't update!

 

uh oh

 

I'll 2nd that... good rules.

Hardware firewalls help out greatly.

 

This sucks cause my AVG is out of date but Windows XP is up to date. Any good recomendations on a free Firewall etc.?

 

Sooo my pc still works
