POPSThe Top Antivirus and Spyware Removals to Avoid Like the Plague Eventually getting hit by a nasty computer virus, trojan or severe Adware infection is bound to happen. These problems strike both experienced as well as novice computer users, and the only indication that something is wrong might be that a strange ad window keeps automatically popping up whenever you’re browsing the Internet or your computer slows down to an annoying crawl. Many people who are faced with these issues automatically turn to the Internet for either free or paid antivirus software. There have been many MUO articles covering various free antivirus or antispyware tools, such as Mark’s review of AVG or Bill’s review of Spyware Terminator. However, since so many people turn to the Internet when such a tragedy strikes, I wanted to take a moment to list some of the fake antivirus and spyware removals that you should stay away from or you’ll find your computer infected even worse.~~~~~~~~~ more at the site

POPSConficker virus begins to attack computers malicious software programme known as Conficker is slowly being activated, weeks after being dismissed as a false alarm, according to computer security experts. Conficker, also known as Downadup or Kido, was expected to wreak havoc on April 1 when it was due to be activated, but it failed to cause many problems. Internet virus experts, however, claim it is now quietly turning thousands of personal computers into servers of e-mail spam and installing spyware.

POPSConficker Wakes Up, Updates, Drops Payload The development was found when Trend Micro researchers noticed a new file in the Windows Temp folder and a large encrypted TCP response from a known Conficker P2P IP node hosted in Korea: Two things can be summed up from the events that transpired: 1. As expected, the P2P communications of the Downad/Conficker botnet may have just been used to serve an update, and not via HTTP. The Conficker/Downad P2P communications is now running in full swing! 2. Conficker-Waledac connection? Possible, but we still have to dig deeper into this…

POPSConficker Computer Worm a Bust so Far The attackers didn't attack today, even though the virus has April 1st in the code. The worm creators are likely to sell slices of a 'botnet' to spammers so that the infected computers can be used to send spam.

POPSConflicker worm remedy just in case. Clipmarking this article, just in case. So far there isn't too much activity caused by this worm... But you never know if one of these human created machine viruses will strike you or I mean your puter. Keep your computer updated plus your virus protection. I use AVG because IT'S FREE and it seems to do the job. Too bad we can't fix the economy as easy. Maybe there should be a banking protector Like AVG... oh, I forgot there was but it went to sleep. :cry:
