VIRUS WARNING
« on: 19 January 2008, 12:11:25 »
Hi all. I've just seen Click, a BBC program on News 24.
There's a virus doing the rounds that normally comes into your in box as a "I love you " or similer subject, at the moment it accounts for 1 in 12 e-mails.
It installs some spy on your PC to enable it to obtain your private info, such as passwords etc.
This is NOT a hoax, it IS for real.
I still remember the hoax that did it's rounds in 2000.
So please be carefull on opening your mail.

old news.

Usual things - keep your AV up to date, keep your Windows Update up to date, keep your anti malware up to date. Then problem mostly solved.
