Forum acting strange, or it's me.

Kevin was on it earlier, John. I would imagine he's had to hit the sack by now.

Checking my other computer before going to bed, just to see if I could get the warning
to come up again and tell more stuff.
AVG blocked it instantly, but left a small window up that said this:

Lokern.cz.cc/tf/anrvr.php
Exploit JavaScript Obfuscation (type 1410)
Process name: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\forefox.exe
Process ID: 440

That's all that was on the window, and AVG said it was blocked completely.
Don't know if this helps, but there it is.

Especially if you did not see any warnings from your anti-virus software. (You ARE running A-V software right??)

Some of us still get by without any av software.

Your looking for a file in your user/localsettings/temp/ in a directory labeled "plugin(something)"

The affected file is plugin-kqay.pdf and its listed as trojan_pidief.smzb

It's relatively new, so there isnt too much out there on it so far.

Just my 2 cents but that seems like going to Antartica in the middle of winter with nothing but knee pants on.


Admittedly I'm no computer guy but I don't see how you can be sure you don't get a virus without a v software. Your computer can be turned into zombie without your knowledge spewing out spam and other horrible stuff without security software.

A well known Techie here in the states, Kim Komando,(she has a national radio show on techie stuff), says that some virus's are so sophisticated the only way to get rid of them is to reformat the hard drive.

Any way thats my take on it. I've been known to be wrong a time or two before. : : :

Seems okay now,

Thanks Kevin and everyone else for keeping 'er ship shape.

 

[deere_x475guy]

Yep, same here and I am at work.

 

[Deanofid]

Thanks Kevin and any other folks who worked on this problem. Your time and help here is invaluable!
All is ship shape, once again.

More like going to a bordello without "protection".

Hi
Just to throw mine in the ring as well, I thought it was because i'd visited " icanhazcheesburger" as well as "hmem" it happened on my desktop and my laptop, 2nd was today at work.
Anywho i've done a screen cap of the message that norton has in recent history.

Yes, Thanks so much for your hard work and dedication. :bow: :bow:

Pardon my bad manners. Give me a *club* *club* *club*. I should have thanked the folks for their hard work in my previous post.

Found that on my work puter Dunno how it got there. Inadvertently visited (via a Google link) a site yesterday that immediately popped up a box that said something about your puter needs scanning, OK ? NOOOOOOO, hung the browser trying to close the dialog, but possibly not quick enough. Deleted that file and no harm appears to be done (yet). Symantec Corporate Antivirus is doing a scan now.

Reminds me to update my A/V at home, got the CD, but have to de-install ZoneAlarm 1st as it conflicts with that, then load Norton A/V upgrade, then re-install ZoneAlarm. Sheeeeesh, better get to it !

Well, he seems to have grown tired of playing with me. There has been no activity from him for about an hour or so. It was fun watching him squirm around trying to get around me. Automation is a wonderful thing.

Lets just hope he stays gone. Now I gotta find the hole he crawled in from...

 

[max corrigan]

Well all seems ok at the moment did not fly to the bottom of the page so thanks to you guys that sorted this out, it seems strange (to me at least) that there are these little minded morons that sit in front of a computer racking their tiny brains out to come up with this sort of c...p to mess up someone else's life because their own life must be so pathetic..... unbelievable!

regards and thanks again Max......
