Last weekend my dad got a
Worm class virus on his computer and the side effects of it were kind of odd for one it was acting like like the his 64bit Windows Vista
(yes I know most everyone hates Vista but it not a bad OS it just not user friendly but it takes a lot of RAM to run though) on it most basic defalts you could think of but with all of his programs still there and his Antivirus
(which gives enterprise class protection to his computer) was just screaming about some
Trojans that were trying to get out unsuccessfully
(which I find funny since it was able to get in but not out, funny is it not). but it just show that anyone can get viruses so always keep you Firewalls and Antiviruses up and running so that way even if you do get one there is still a chance for it not to get out
(this includes Macs for there are Mac viruses but they are rare) and don't forget to make back-ups. his computer is fine now he had it formatted yesterday and he keep all of his important files on a separate sever, so there was no data lost
(but we still would like to know what the Worms target was).
(from the last post i said it was mellanoma when I meant meningitis.)
