No problems here.

None here, but I know that hotmail has been plagued by sending viruses.

none here- but i have geeks in my house who thrive (I mean he LOVES finding bugs) on people's computers getting sick.
He thinks it's funny when someone freaks over a virus. He goes into "geek mode" as I call it and about 2 our 3 hours later- smooth running machine. So I guess my tuition checks are worth it. |

I can't fathom how your tech could figure that the virus came from this board. Maybe it came from an email or a download file or some other website. |

I have a computer programmer, a network techie and the youngest hasn't decided what specialization. You should listen to them talk. Makes me laugh.
I am very lucky to have them. The office computer got a bug and I called the youngest and said there's a check if you can get this done asap. Bring home the tower, got the sinister laugh of I am better than the virus and off he went. Seriously, 2 hours later- bug free and he's happily telling me what sites to stay away from. He loves to fix them. I like how he loves the computers but I really wished he used his super Math skills to a better advantage. |
Had a virus once that was attached to my DH's e-mail account. Mcafee virus scan turned out to be crap. Now I use AVG.com/free. Must be goggled to get the right AVG. but I have learned that there is a virus out there that can turn your AVG off an infect your comp if you don't run a scan every other day.

Yes, lost everything in memory. had a back up drive, but it won't work, says it is damaged or something, I hate that I lost all pics, but I now do not open links, just look at what is posted. Had all antivirus and such, it lock up and said I needed to run a scan. That was the virus that wiped me out.
