Been out a few days having the laptop cleaned and debugged. My tech says it looks like I got the virus from the board.. not exactly sure where abouts.. has anyone else had any problems?

I've picked up one or two. I hardly open the links that aren't tutorials anymore.

No, but I keep my anti-virus up to date and run regular scans.

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.

none here either.
i got one a month ago..a nasty one, lost everything on the computer, had to be reformatted. but DH opened up some crap that his friends send..jokes,links to jokes..etc..he has been warned! lol
i have free Super anti-spyware, and Malaware running with my paid AVG program. since they are free, i have to run them myself. i run them once a week.

This is why you must have a backup...i learned the hard way.
