Virus Warnning all !!!!!

Post by v8ranger »

Hello all, Just an FYI. For anyone that opened those wonderful spam postings, make sure you check your virus software, and that its up to date and is runing. I think I got a virus from one, im not positive, im just guessing at this point. My virus scan wont update or run right. I cant even run a virus scan from Nortans web sight. So im thinking I got a virus from the spam postings in here. So BEWARE!!! dont even open them to see what they are. So EVERYONE, check your computers. I am thinking that is where I got them from, I dont know how because I didnt go into them, I guess that what I get for having an old computer with no firewall or up to date virus software. So my main computer is at the shop :x I would have rather spent my money on my truck and not on my puter............ :x

As far as I can tell all those posts were virus free and unless you downloaded something after following one of their links that's not where you got it.

As for virus software try this

http://free.avg.com/

It's free for personal non commercial use and in the testing we did at my last company a lot better than mcafee or norton. Better as in no bloat and a lot less load on your PC and no noticeable slow down as well as more frequent updates to new viruses. AVG was pretty consistent in receiving the latest virus signatures prior to the other brands.
