Is anyone else having trouble with this virus on ES? I have had several attacks from this virus when I have been on ES in the last couple of days, fortunately they have all been repelled!

I know a couple of people who feel they've been hacked, here. Screwed up files on their computers...

Don't tell me... [Eek!]
My new computer is running so slow tonight, please, don't tell me it's a virus.... But I'm almost sure it is... I don't understand, I have a good antivirus.
And now I'm trying to scan my PC, and even the scan isn't working. ****.

Shut your computer down, reboot, and run your scan again. Isn't this particular worm pretty old?

Here is some info about the virus/worm: http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=10632

And: http://www.viruslist.com/en/news?id=59188
..."Helkern" infects only computers running Microsoft SQL Server 2000, a multi-functional database system widely used primarily on Web-servers. To home users of any Windows version without the installion of Microsoft SQL Server the worm poses no threat...

The worm is old, but still very active, apparently...any techies around?

Okay this FREAK is flooding my computer with viruses.

I know they can do that if they hack websites.

So all of you, you're not safe every time you login here..

I'm out of here.. It was nice knowing you all!
