My appologies if it's been posted before. At least I couldn't find it. It appears to be legit, but so does my birth certificate. The bastids.

While I'm sure this will affect someone, I wish them a lot of luck pulling this one on me. Between AVG and regular scans with Malwarebytes, I doubt it will get past the defenses.

The simple act of making sure that your router isn't set to the default user name and password, should keep this from spreading to other devices on the network.

Overall, I'm not the least bit worried.

All they have to do is point all addresses to a page that gives instructions to clean it...

MOST men our age have little hair left to perm. Unless you mean the stuff on our ears and backs.

Truth. There was a time when AOL users were by far the worst part of the internet.

Why not ?? White shiny polyester bell bottoms, white guys with pseudo-afro's that after a while sink down at the top and bulge on the sides giving it more of a bozo look.
