And yet another IRC virus -Aron - Mar 31 07:25pm |

There has been a new IRC virus alerted today. It is spreading very fast, so I'd like to warn you for it. People that have clicked the link, get infected, and will automatically paste the link too, without knowing it. If you've opened this link; http://people.freenet.de/.../......jpg do the following: * In c:\windows\temp there are 3 files ( lol.bat,lol.lnk and mirc.exe). * Replace the windows32 folder notepad with the windows folder notepad. After this, you should be clean Thanks in advance, and remember: DONT CLICK RANDOM IMAGE LINKS IN IRC! |

If you have been automatically banned from IRC by JAbot, the ban should automatically be removed in 60 minutes. If you have been MANUALLY banned because of a virus, you will have to let a Knight know when you cleaned your computer to get unbanned. |

ok, thank you very much Aron... NOt that I ever click Links though only from reliable people, and even then with caution. But thanks for letting me know, now I'll be super-careful  _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website! Quote: I try to have fun with my friends and try to make a difference as best I can.
