This ransom ware drove me to the edge. It took me over two hours to just find programs that would remove this pest for free. I tried about 7 different products and half of them did not detect anything. The program that removed it was spyware doctor. After i removed it my computer started having system problems and then would not recognize the .exe file types anymore. After all this i had to reinstall windows. This is the biggest pain ever. Have you ever gotten this? What are your experiences?

It's better than Norton or Macafee or the other pay monthly security things. It doens't bog down your computer. You don't get these viiruses. madinflux Posted at 8:09 pm on June 15, 2008 Quote: from Keego05 at 8:06 pm on June 15, 2008 Quote: from madinflux at 4:04 am on June 16, 2008 Quote: from iamdeblas at 8:03 pm on June 15, 2008 If you're using windows, why do you have Tux as your avatar again?     Wishful thinking, no? :D    I use windows, linux, and mac. I use windows for my web designing and image editing needs. I love dreamweaver and photoshop. Other than that i use linux. For someone that can create virus's Dreamweaver seems a bit of a cop out. well it lets me get things done fast so i can work on my next project. I used to use Nvu but i had compatibility issues. Then i used bluefish but i found dreamweaver easier.

But i lent my flash drive to my friend and he gave it back and plugged it in then automatically it installed and started to bug up my computer. iamdeblas Posted at 8:03 pm on June 15, 2008 If you're using windows, why do you have Tux as your avatar again?
