Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2005PING: NMR (No More Retail)
You are sending out a virus with your links. My computer keeps shutting them off (and shutting itself off). STOP posting links.

Perhaps it's something in the actual page (local6.com) that your puter doesn't like?  SignatureVictor M. Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam here: uce@ftc.gov Email me here: pistorLITTER@BOXaustin.rr.com Unless it was on the site with the Christmas light show. Your right Victor you can't send a virus by a link unless it leads to a download Just in case I do have something . I am scanning my computer right now with online and outside sources I doesn't hurt anything to be sure nothing yet except cookies. >> You are sending out a virus with your links.

Perhaps it's something in the actual page (local6.com) that your > puter doesn't like? It is the many and varied "http" urls it posts. There are many websites which will digitally send viruses to their visitors. Who can be aware of them all? I don't believe NMR knows this, but because many of websites its strange stories come from are so unusual, I stopped going to them......and I have five firewalls/virus-stoppers, none of which "shut down" nor "shut off" my PC. I don't think the viruses from the websites are necessarily in NMR's PC nor that they originate there. You are right dnr I keep forgetting sometimes about the website I visit. that is why I want to know what links the poster is talking about? I am doing the same as you I am running multiple firewalls, spyware and virus scanners. I don't download anything unless it is scanned multiple times ( got burned before years ago learned my lesson ) I have not heard of a program that shuts the computer down and just finished the scans nothing but cookies not spyware, no adware, no mal ware, no virus, no root codes nothing but cookies the scans used Norton's anti virus both system and online MacAfee's online virus scanner xoftspy spyware remover spyware detector noadware spyware remover ad-adware remover trend micro anti spyware and anti virus avg online scanner and anti virus spyware nuker Rootcode detector RC detective Shields up Source code Anti-hacker tools >>> You are sending out a virus with your links.

I run a hardware firewall, two software firewalls, two types of antivirus software and a great anti-spyware program. > You are right dnr I keep forgetting sometimes about the website I visit. > that is why I want to know what links the poster is talking about? [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > Source code > Anti-hacker tools> There are viruses and trojans that will "shut down" your PC and are programmed to do the same to whomever in your addy-book will bite the bait of an appealing attachment or email from *you*! Some of the better hackers - human effort here - can reduce your PC to a smoking, forever-inoperable ruin at their whim. I respectfully suggest you spend less time surfing for wierd website news and dig into your many security-ware programs' subscribers' information on viruses and trojans and their capabilities. Congratulations on your choice to run multiple security programs; a near-necessity these days. I am still unable in spite of mine to dispose of all obnoxious spam automatically, the spammers as well as us, have learned a lot and varied their techniques, LOL. .> I said program not virus or Trojan :-) I know about that they can shut off your computer or destroy it. I got hit years ago by a virus called fire storm it fired everything but the second hard drive. the tech found the virus hiding in the mirror image. I get the subscription both in snail mail and email. I got to keep up on the new stuff I have a business server and several other computers that are run by family that have no idea what the difference between the keyboard and the mouse Dully noted about the web surfing but what fun would that be I just won't post links to them unless I know they are safe from now one >> You are right dnr I keep forgetting sometimes about the website I visit. >> that is why I want to know what links the poster is talking about? [quoted text clipped - 38 lines] > > .> > the scans used > Norton's anti virus both system and online [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > Source code > Anti-hacker tools An impressive list! Have you tried "Spybot Search and Destroy" or "SpywareBlaster"? The first is a scanner / immunizer and the second a "shield" that doesn't allow nasties aboard. Christine in Vantaa, Finland postin from work I tried spybot but it failed to find some cookies that ad-ware found Noware comes with a shield and spydetecter comes with a registry and homepage protector. Rc detective is a great scanner it searches for root codes in my email incoming and outgoing I only run all of them when think there is a problems or in cases as above. https://www.grc.com/ this link takes you to shields up the creator of ad-ware it checks all your ports there is also programs on there to help in security >> the scans used >> Norton's anti virus both system and online [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > Christine in Vantaa, Finland postin from work >> You are sending out a virus with your links.

STOP [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > I wonder if Jill does have some kind of spyware or virus already > active, and certain sites trigger it? I wonder too. There are some nasties out there, some that download spyware applications to your computer without your knowledge. Virtumonde or something like that for Firefox, and one that I can't remember the name of that targets IE. I was plagued with popups one day for something called WinFixer 2005, an annoying thing! Doing some research to figure out how to get rid of it led me to an Ad- spy- mal- ware remover called Spy Sweeper from Webroot (www.webroot.com) and it found all kinds of stuff that Adaware didn't find. Adaware found Virtumonde, but even though it said it removed it, it didn't. Spy Sweeper sets up shields to keep you from getting "reinfected" and I've been happy with it so far. It isn't free, but they have a free 14 day trial to at least remove what you have now. SignatureCheryl xoftspy and noware are two other excellent spyware removers >>>> You are sending out a virus with your links. My computer >>>> keeps shutting them off (and shutting itself off).
