Nastiest Virus I've ever seen
Wait, it's 2010 and some people still use internet explorer?
I happen to have pretty good anti-virus and security suite stuff, but this nasty malicious malware crap got past my defenses.
On the other hand, I also have a Mozilla Firefox browser which did NOT get hit, so I was able to use THAT browser (despite the stuff that kept otherwise impeding my OS) to get to the web-sites where I found the cure, and I could do the downloads (especially after going into safe-mode-with-networking).
I would recommend that EVERYONE have at least one good functioning alternative browser available on each computer.
It appears you just won a eletronic darwin award for one of the truely stupid things I have seen anyone post.I think computer virus infections should count as eletronic darwin awards. anyone dumb enough to get hit by a virus deserves it

I had an atytempt yesterday when I was looking at the VH1 website, updated Norton caught it.I had one of those horrible malwar viruses a year or so ago.
Never did figure out how I got it.
Like some of you it blew past my antivirus software and took over the box.
Nasty stuff, that.

Most virus come in secretly, nobody 'allows' them and they quite often find ways around security.

you have to perform actions that allow them to execute. whether they are silent or not after that is irrelevant.

You mean like searching on the internet, opening e-mail from a "trusted source" or plugging in a new memory stick, etc..................

you can search safely, its easy to look at headers to see if an email is spoofed, and you should zero then format any new memory stick you get and in case you have to plug in other people you should have auto run & u3 disabled so none of the files execute on plug in. I haven't used anti virus in years and never had an issue
