10th march 2010 Computer Virus



After being on peacepink, after playing with google picassa that lets you make slideshows and films with your own pictures, after playing some games on FaceBook that I play daily .. I needed sleep.

Because my things got destroyed one after the other, I promised myself that I would surveillance myself with the computer every time I am not at home and every time I sleep.

In the morning, I found out that I had a lot of messages on FaceBook.

I read them all and in one of them, there was an Elaine that said "don't open the mail from X because there is a virus"

I didn't open any mail from any X, but I opened her email, clicked there on a link, thinking I was safe, and my computer got infected with trojans, spywere, you name it.

I had 28 infections and over 7000 viruses in my computer in 5 minutes and they seemed to pass throught the windows firewall.
My anti virus was out of date.

I managed to get the computer to the store where I bought it.
Of course . I did NOT have the receite. I looked for it, but could not find it at home. Not in my wallet either.
But they didn't ask me either.
They said I should ring Sony support and I did - and they taought me how to formatate my computer.

Not so much lost.

People in town were nice. I had cofee and coca cola zero at a place in town that had wifi and I bought new clothing.
I could not believe that I gained so much weight.
I know that they can contol that also.
It is dangerous for any TI to look good.

Back home, I asked on facebook what this virus was all about.
Elaine just sent me another link, that I didn't open.

Now i've reinstalled most programs I had lost on my computer.

And I also bought a new anti virus.

  • In comparison with how much loss they caused me, what I lost now, like a few pictures and a little bit of writing - was nothing.
  • Before they attacked me massively i would be OK, not very thin, but OK, normal. When they started I gained a lot and the more I tried to go down the more I gained. ONly exercise can BEAT that.
    I have normal stomach, sometimes hard, but usually normal.
    But they can make me gain as much as 5 kg in 2 days. I would just swollow up.
    Under the time I moved around a lot, I lost a lot because I walked a lot, i carried stuff, and so on.

    That's why I bought the bike - to get exercise, because otherwise i would not feel confortable.
    I used to be a pretty girl :)))))
    They want to make me look undesireble, it is easear for people to target me I gues, and I also feel worse or course. There are 2 reasons.

    You are absolutely right : It was a .exe file.
    Good thing you reminded me. Because I totally forgot.
    I will look up my email maybe I can put a screen shot.
    I think I like blogging here.
  • Yes they really do look authentic and blocked my computer entirely, i could not install a new anti virus, so I had to lose everything I had on the computer to get rid of all the virused. I thought it was strange that this program wasn't deleting the bugs on the computer but was in fact blocking the computer.
  • I forgot to tell you..the virus that looks like a windows virus program is designed to bug you with pop up windows that wont go away...It wants to scan your computer and say they can get rid of all your problems...the pop ups look authenic. What they want is for u to put your credit/debit card on and they will steal all your money out of your bank account. I would like to get my hands on these people....
  • Good luck to you. Also dont forget to alway install new update daily before you shut down your computer at night...Again they warned me about facebook, u-tube, etc... I think I got mine from opening up a photo in perfect spot. I just dont go to too many sites unless I get the green check mark that the site is approved. I also had to create an additional e-mail address due to all the junk mail you get from surfing. People are sick for making up viruses to harm peoples computers, but hell, look what is being done to us
  • If it doesnt work for you..please try this company. support.com You sit in front of your computer and they are on the phone with you...once they come into your computer. You sit there and can watch your mouse being controlled by them and can watch them remove everything. They saved my computer. I think it costs $49 for a one time fix but I paid $129 for a year and I can call them 24/7 Great company!
  • They gave me the free version of malwarebytes. You can download the free vversion at their website. malwarebytes.com also they suggested the free versions of avast and windows defender. From what I hear, they are the best antivirus sofeware on the market. I had 3 on my computer and they did not stop my virus until they used those three to remove all of it. I had over 300 files infected from facebook and u-tube
  • Thank you Sharon. I am in Spain and I guess that I could call anyway but I have to see if this anti-virus helps me. Enough remote control anyway:)
  • I had to the same thing. I found this company that will remotely remove and restore your computer. They are fantastic! I have 3 anti-virus, etc programs and it did not catch that super bug. If your interested call
