My virus pop. Has popped up today saying
I have three viruses. Don't know if it
came from here or somewhere else. Because
me and my hubsand does alot of things.
Mainly hubsand is looking up stuff to do
term papers on. And some of his online
classes he has to take. So I don't know
where my is coming from.

The virus that I have it is called
java/byte verify. It supposely in the
documents somewhere. My hubsand will get
it figure out when he gets home. Which
will probably be wednesday. I forgot he
has a seminar to go to tuesday and he
doesn't know how long it will last. But
as soon as he gets home he will probably
figure it out. At least I hope he can
figure it out and we don't have to get a
new computer. Sometimes you have to get a
new computer because of the damage done by
a virus.

I think you will fins the forum is not
full of viruses.
A while back there was an issue with an
exploitation but that wouldn't infect any
computers using the forum although some
may flag up that there is something on the
site (but still not on your comp ie norton
will say bloodhound but that is nortons
waying of saying it saw something I didn't
understand)
there have been a couple of issues where
users online at the same time have had
viruses passed to them from *another user*
via the forum but not from the forum
itself.

I think I might have figured out where the
virus is coming from. Now I could be
wrong that is why when my hubsand gets
home he is going to check it out. He is
good with things about computers. But I
think it might be from where you go to
post pictures. Don't you have to go to a
different place to download a picture on
here. Because I didn't get the virus
until I went to a post that had a picture
on it. But now I don't forget I could be
wrong. I was just wondering if that is
how people keeps getting it. As soon as
my hubsand gets it figured. That is if he
can. I will let you know.

I found out how to get rid of it off my
puter....You have to delete the temp
internet files in the internet options
part....That'll get rid of it. I haven't
had it pop up since!! :)

I am going to wait until my hubsand gets
home. Which will be soon. And let him
figure it out. Because I am afraid that I
will mess up the computer and have more
work for him to do. I also hate to mess
up the computer and him not have one to do
his school work on. He has a paper he has
to do and turn in. In a couple of weeks.

One thing I have noted is that it doesn't
seem to be an actual virus. I have the
sygate firewall (can be downloaded free),
and it asks and then tell me what it
blocks. I have had "realplayer" being
blocked a lot when I am on this forum.
Realplayer may have some build-in spyware
that tracks your online activity and
somehow slows the computers down. Since
I blocked realplayer, I have not had
problems on here.
