I have a virus on my computer, or so it would seem, and it seems to be getting itself around. If a photobucket link with "a new picture of me" should come up from me, DO NOT OPEN IT!!!!

What am I to do about the virus?!!! Help!!

Something like Norton Ant Virus should be able to sort it out.. Yikes!

Bad luck...We use windows live one care... I hope you can get it sorted, but thanks for the warning.

I'm running a McAfee scan. People are telling me I've wrecked their computers.

It says "directory or file cannot be created" when I try to copy things to my pen drive. Does this mean I've lost things?!

It wouldn't open for me, so it's good. I did click the link tho (I hadn't read your name), got prompted with a .bin file download.....then I smelt a rat...

Don't you just hate MSN viruses!

Oh, I got a virus like that once. Someone on MSN said "Look at these pictures of you from last weeked!!"
So, naturally, I clicked.
And I shouldn't have.
And I killed my computer.
By accident, though.
And it's all better now.
Phew.

Did you lose all your data?

I had something like that from a forum member - it was called 'Holiday Pics' or something, and she'd just been away so I saw no harm in clicking on the link. Thankfully, my computer was spared that time, but thanks for the warning Matthew! (Guess who is finally reconnected at home? )

So glad you're reconnected!

Everything ok?

I think so! Just off to Inverness (very exciting place! ) for a while but will try to reply to your PM later . Hope all is well with you. x
