Dang.

Yeah, I know how that feels. I got hit by that popular one right now on Friday night, and spent all Saturday morning killing the **** thing. Ugh.

Good luck to ya, I don't think getting rid of it will be hard, just an annoyance.

Yup we're getting it down here in sunny Cuba too. I told someone about it and guess what they said? "You shouldn't believe anything that people in chat rooms, or forums have to say." Well now we have that very same worm in our weather computer. Not a good thing. Need I say more?

Waluin, are you sure you got the SirCam virus? I mean there are a lot of similar viruses out there.

Um...is it just a fluke, or does malicious virus activity on the Internet seem to be increasing dramatically over the past month? What the heck's going on out there?

I was reading something on CNET the other day about how malicious virus' are becoming more frequent. They were writing about how they think a lot of it is done by ex kgb guys in russia. They were saying that some of the best hackers in the world are now in russia and are working for organized crime out there.

kind of crazy stuff!
