Oh shit, trojan?!?
| Message Board > General Chitchat > Oh shit, trojan?!? |
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Well this evening, I had something suddenly wipe out directories of data in my C:\Program Files directory, it might be a trojan, but I always thought I was prepared for any attack. At worse, I almost screwed up my computer because I can't deal with crashes. Sigh, rebuilding C: - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 1:57am | ||
| XWISE SANTA User Info... | No idea if I have the same virus , yes I've had problems in the last 24 hours . I've dumped a lot of data and did a scan over every program and file, nothings come forward . I've increased my security , but like most times I fear it's to late . - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 4:55am | ||
| SickFuk User Info... | http://housecall60.trendmicro.com/en/start_corp.asp?id=scan best antivirus I know and Griphin... not surprised you're having trouble with a Trojan.... maybe try a Ramses? 'ere - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 5:19am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Heh... Actually it wiped out most of the data in C:\Program Files, and I saw it do this, thing is I suddenly got pissed off and almost broke the bone right underneath my wrist (hitting the keyboard). Now I need to reformat C:\ and re-install Win2000 to stabilize the OS. Sigh, what a hassle. - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 12:09pm | ||
| dumpstermesh User Info... | Ya, I suspect that my issues with Trojans are due to my latex allergy. There is a plastic one out there by Durex called Avanti. A little pricier but it sure beats the painful alternative:) Maybe your computer developed a latex allergy too? - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 12:29pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Ummm... WRONG TROJAN!!! Though I did try to protect my computer by wrapping the main box around a Durex, that didn't work. :( - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 6:49pm | ||
| SickFuk User Info... | Griph Griph Griph.... it's not the box you wrap tsk tsk 'ere - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 8:59pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Oh duh! Yeah I know, least everything is getting back to normal here. I also got fedup with Internet Exploder (err... Explorer) and I am now running FireFox. Things actually work now. - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 9:13pm | ||
| The Wolf User Info... | It's Hell... I Have a Router with Built In Firewall...and Still use AVG Antivirus,Zone Alarm,Spybot,Ad-Aware,MS Anti-Spyware and CCLeaner to keep my computers running Free of Viruses - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 10:26pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Remember to download another Ad-Aware type application and scan with that as well as Ad-Aware. I heard about this on D0tt0'z Cafe so I tried it out, and wow it worked. - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 11:11pm | ||
| nicola User Info... | Best antivirus I know of... Buy a Mac... 99% of viruses out there are designed for PC and don't work on macs. - Tue, 6 Dec 2005 11:18pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | At the moment, this is true. One day, the Mac will be just as virus/trojan ridden. I mean if they can get OS-X to work on a PC that means the Mac's are a cheap version of the PC. Actually, I blame Windows, I should be running Linux. - Wed, 7 Dec 2005 12:28pm | ||
| Gabri~hell User Info... | I am with you, Nicola. My Mac has been somewhat of an impenetrable forcefield thus far. I like it that way. Apple, apple, apple.... - Fri, 9 Dec 2005 11:41pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | Still, you pay too much for the Mac, although you can run OSX on the PC. I mean jeez, no-one's mentioned Linux. - Sat, 10 Dec 2005 11:05am | ||
