Virus from the banner ad?

Nope, Mine shows nothing about CSR having a virus. :smt038

Code 404 is NOT a virus !!. :smt001

You got that virus elsewhere's . http://www.microsoft.com/security/p...a/Entry.aspx?Name=VirTool:Win32/Obfuscator.BN

 

Ok at this end.

 

False positive... Some anti-virus programs error on the side of caution...

 

Phlorida, Do this online virus scanner. :smt001 http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner

 

obfuscator.BN is a java script code call depending on your search engine settings 404 is returned because you can't display that page it is NOT a virus.

 

Theres no harm in checking it out by another source thats all. :smt001

 

My PC just picked up some malware from the site. I am having to type this on my iPad since the infection does not seem to affect the apple products.

It started a process that was named vnageoz.exe and gave me a bunch of bogus warnings and error messages.

 

I'am getting it right now, had the 404 yellow banner for the last 2 days and also some kind if crap from microsoft trying to protect me from them for 79.00 dollars. What is it and where did it come from???...Rip

 

Riptide
The malware is not from Microsoft. DO NOT give them your credit card number. You will only get more malware and be out the $$$.

To remove you will need to download three programs, boot in safe mode, disconnect from the Internet, install the three programs and run each one. When they are done, you should be malware free.

Download these programs from the links I provide. I know that the links I provide you are safe.

Superantispyware. www.superantispyware.com. Use the link to the free edition

Malwarebytes. www.malwarebytes.org. Click products, then free edition

Spybot search and destroy. www.safer-networking.org. Pick English, click download, scroll to bottom of page, then click download

You may have to do this on another PC, burn the three files to a CD/DVD then use that DVD to install on the infected machine.

Disconnect from the Internet, boot the infected machine to safe mode by tapping the F8 key during boot up, but, before you see the Windows splash screen, install the three programs and when they are done they will ask you to remove files. Let them remove anything they want to remove. It will all be stuff you do not want on your machine.

Reboot the PC and you should be OK.

Since it is Sunday, we are on double rate, so that will be $390.

 

No problem: Here

 

...or just get a Mac. This is one of many reasons that I dumped the PC. Windows 7 is the best version they've come out with but having to jump through these stupid hoops daily is BS. Life is better on a Mac.

 

Maybe you need to read a few more posts about the problem PC people are having before formulating an opinion.

 

Mac is not a safer or more robust product than PC. It just doesn't have millions of hackers around the world attacking it every day. Not trying to start a Ford Chevy debate here, Mac seems to be a good system. Mac is a foot note to the software world with a share less than 5% from what I've read and is not a juicy target to hackers. This is not bashing Mac, a program its users love, just presenting reality. I know of NO business, with the exception of arts, that run programs on Mac. The entire financial world runs on PC andthat is a nut word wide crime syndicates, foreign governments and yes the local nerds want to crack. MM
