I tell ya funkydopeloven will never learn. Cool He and I had just finished a very long conversation about wearing a firewall when surfing because of his claim of getting AIDs here. Looks like he's been doin it at the LAN parties again. He really needs to be more careful before he infects us all with all those partners he's been playing with. Razz

the AIM virus is spreading like wildfire. if u get anylinks saying check out my pics or dude this was cool DO NOT OPEN THEM. always make sure u know the person who sent it to u and even if u do do not open it. the virus spreads automatically so even if youre infected it will send it out to people you know but you wont know that its sent out so spread the word about these 2 viruses.

the thing that i dont get is why these nerdy ass bitches write these viruses. my solution to stop alot of these viruses is for everyone to move out of their parents house at 20 years of age at the latest.and for all you parents out there dont let your kids sit in basements with computers.

has anybody heard of a virus that stops the pc from turning the pc on?

my mate gave me a pc the other day saying it wouldn`t turn on, so when i plugged it in it turned straight on.
so while i had it running i decided to free up some space and get rid of loads of programs like kazza and p2p rubbish.

when i plugged it into the internet (after turning the firewall back on) I got about 15 pop up`s straight away, so i headed straight to the avg website and got avg free.

now the moment i installed it i wanted to reboot the computer and powered it of by mistake.

only then it wouldn`t turn back on again.

I Figured If i pulled the battery out it would confuse the bug and make it
boot again, only now it turns on with a black screen

please help

i`ve tried reseting the cmos

Guys, the best defence against email viruses is NEVER posting your email address on the net. If you need to tell someone what it is, make it look like "Randomname *AT* RandomISP *dot com*". I have been doing this since I changed ISP (and email address, obviously) and I haven't had any spam since.

edit: well, I got one of those paypal scams (obviously a scam, I have never used PayPal.) when I was tired and talking to someone on b3ta.com, he mentioned Datapimp.org and I said I had registered Sp3cial *at* hiddenforprivacy *dot com* (just avoiding spam there, I posted the proper address).

Best method to avoid spam is not to strike up a conversation with shortacid Laughing
