...compared to what I would do the malicious fool who created the Spyware 2009 vrus that got on my computer,
Been off the board lately due to a virus you all might want to watch out for. In spite of having Norton Protection on the computer a virus called Spyware 2009 infected my system. It pretends to be Windows and gives you a warning message stating that you may have some spyware on your system. It then scans your system and brings up a message (again - mimicking Microsoft) saying your system is infected. It then says your anti spyware is out of date and for $49.95 you can download an up to date protection. If you do this, they will max out your credit card. Thankfully, I didn't do this.
My computer guru is working on fixing my system. Hopefully he can save everything but he says its a bad virus and we may have to reformat the hard drive. I backed up everything I thought i needed but you know how that goes.
So, watch out for this. My compputer guru says it has infected about 1 out of every 1000 systems in our area and has really put some businesses in a bind.
BTW - if you know who did this let me know cause I'll take about a month or so off from work and teach this little cockroach the good points of water boarding.
