Beavis Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 On his pc There is a god. He pm'd me for help. I was hoping it was him that had a virus when i saw the title Not sure swine flu could deal with him though. Anyhow me and IanS16 have sorted him out and he as 14 trogan horses running a mock on his computer. Ian put it down to gay porn sites Liam had visited Shame on you though for having no anti-virus software on your computer especially with your business dealings. So time to kick him whilst he is down. Fire at will Quote
Lexx Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 He'd have never had that problem if the PC was lowered and had spacers.... Quote
Husky Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Ian put it down to gay porn sites Liam had visited but having no antivirus Quote
Chesterfield Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 to be fair, some of these trojans can be quite a pain in the backside. Having had issues both at work and at home previously I dont envy him at all Quote
Beavis Posted July 22, 2009 Author Posted July 22, 2009 I will say this once only if you want great security get this and its dirt cheap. There is no excuse http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu ... 64&subcat= Quote
maxi-glasgow Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 I never keep any antivirus software running on any of my laptops, PC's etc as they just eat up your processing... 9 times out of 10 any problems you encounter are caused by spyware etc which mostly get by antivirus software anyway. So I just download, install AVG, run a scan, uninstall and carry on every month or two. Think I have only ever had 2 viruses in my lifetime (on the PC's that is...) and nothing too serious that couldn't be cured by the above actions. The amount of times I have been called out to a users laptop that is running like a pig, and when checking it's resources for processes running, 9 times out of 10 it's whatever the antivirus software the company uses is to blame, I have seen this for both McAfee Enterprise and also Sophos. Uninstall, reboot and reinstall fixes it every time. Quote

If you are doing financial transactions over the net i would not feel safe with out them been on. I dont think my anti virus will be causing to many problems with the processing power on my 3.6 ghz quad core machine with 4gb of ram Quote
H5 Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Isn't this the 2nd time it has happened to him as well?! Liam, you really need to go to more legitimate websites! Quote

nixy Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 he accidentally sent me a very odd email the other day with some strange attachments, I somehow ended up on a distribution list he'd done - wondered why he didn't reply when I emailed him back.............. Thank god it wasn't naked pictures of him again....... Quote
M13KYF Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 to be fair, some of these trojans can be quite a pain in the backside. Having had issues both at work and at home previously I dont envy him at all we had one at home on monday. The wife was on the pc when it suddenly popped up a message saying virus detected, do you wish to remove it. All looking like windows style. The wife of course hit the yes button only to find out that this was the prompt to install the virus which looks like a anti virus removal program. The program loads up and says its detected the virus. To delete it you need to register, (payment of course). Very cunning. PC locked up. Had to go back to an earlier back up, install prevx (use this at work for mallware and virus detection and removal) and now its gone Quote
rtbiscuit Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 i use kaspersky and its very unobtrusive. or there are the free owns like AVG, and i always have spybot on mine and upto date. any ways i never knew sarnie was into gay porn, he told me "your only gay if you take it" what ever that means? he told me he liked his partners cold, something about necro- something or other, can't remember off hand Quote

PhilTheForce Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Being a cheapass I've never paid for Antivirus etc. I use free stuff AntiVir free: http://www.free-av.com/ Ccleaner : http://www.ccleaner.com/ (Use once a day, takes 5 secs and clears out all shite) Otherwise Spybot, AdAware etc All free all keep your pc running cool like the fonz.
