Anybody else get a virus tonight?

[spade]

I got one from the stream I guess.

that and a gay porn phone site thing that couldn't be closed out. And firefox wouldn't even open and the computer would just shut off at times.

What are you doing there?

[C-Lo]

Yup...

...I got a virus too!

Just logged on to the computer I used to watch the fight last night and it was just bugging out! We have 4 computers in the house and for some reason I chose to use the one that was just about to break when I usually pick the good ones for fights. I was already debating to buy a new one but now, it just makes the decision easier.

My computer is acting fine and my anti-virus doesn't detect anything. I'd wager I still got it though.

[OumaFan]

mine was called skynet, cute. I apparently got rid of it which shocked people on this computer website (bleepingcomputer.com, very helpful, I'm sure they're thrilled with the endorsement) but it was one of those viruses that are mainly known for getting credit card information, luckily I had a credit card disaster years ago and mainly avoid them now, I did call my bank cause I do online banking but nothing.

[CFH]

So aside from running an anti-virus scan, which I've done, is there anything else I can do to check and see if my computer was infected as well?

[OumaFan]

well my anti-virus scan picked up virus corrupted files left and right so if you don't see any that's a good sign.

Try this, its probably a good thing to have on your computer anyway. Malwarebytes anti-malware thing. Its what I think helped me.

if you really want to go all out this thing doesn't really do anything but it will show you if you've got something

here's the thing from the computer website about how to run it


We can kill this thing though.

and on and on and on, believe me it went a lot longer. So basically you'll see something saying you have skynet files if you do.

Not sure if you want to do all that but the malwarebytes thing is good to have on your computer anyway.
