Hi Dave,
I think my computer must be ok. It took me a few minutes to get my computer turned off on Sunday and my Norton doesn't show any invasions. So I am hoping all is well. I don't know what posessed me to click when I did. Sometimes we have a tendency to let our guard down when we feel like we are among friends, but we should never forget that there is no privacy in this computer age and anybody can be waiting, ready to attack, destroy and get our personal information.
Thanks for the research Dave and the warning.
Chris
Hi Chris,
No problem, it took a while to run that little critter down, it turns out that it is a world wide Bug and attacks BLOGS.
Now we are aware and alert.
