-- Posted by madinflux at 7:59 pm on June 15, 2008 Well i have created viruses and gotten my own but never have I ever dealt with such a pain. 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? -- Posted by inkblot at 8:00 pm on June 15, 2008 I had that one before. I had to reformat. -- Posted by lordofallyou at 8:01 pm on June 15, 2008 never had it, sounds fun -- Posted by Syber at 8:01 pm on June 15, 2008 Nah never had that one...Usually people that know how to "create viruses" are fairly good at not getting them... -- Posted by 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 -- Posted by madinflux at 8:03 pm on June 15, 2008 Quote: from Syber at 8:01 pm on June 15, 2008 Nah never had that one...Usually people that know how to "create viruses" are fairly good at not getting them... i know. 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. -- Posted by madinflux at 8:04 pm on June 15, 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?

Then i used bluefish but i found dreamweaver easier. -- Posted by froufroufrou at 8:11 pm on June 15, 2008 Download Avast from www.avast.com It's free. 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. -- Posted by madinflux at 8:12 pm on June 15, 2008 I used avast and it overlooked it.
