ATTACK!!!!!!!!! Or more like INVADE!!!!!!!!!! That’s what it will sound like if I understood all those programming languages. This basically means that my computer got invaded by viruses, Trojan to be exact. Boy do I hate these viruses. If I so happen to meet the actual person who created this virus, I will SKIN THIS PERSON ALIVE!!!
I just started my blog last week. The first comment I got (which made me so pleased), came up with 1 pop-window. Then more than a dozen windows started popping up. Lo and behold the virus got hold of my computer and I literally panicked. Scream at my fiancée for help which he said it’s a virus though with a note of sweat (he’s had a bad experience with all these darn viruses). Thank God for Kapersky Anti-Virus, it’s contained but still can’t be erased. So, I could still blog but the feeling of being “invaded” and the possibility of losing all my wedding pictures made me bring the notebook to the “clinic”.
Each time I mentioned the word “ Bryan ” which was the guy whom I bought my notebook from, the notebook seems to “understand” that I’ll be bringing it for a thorough check and it immediately let me continue with peace, without the occasional “warning”. I’m not sure whether it’s such a coincidence that each time his name was mentioned the notebook goes all “timid” and sort of submissive. Damn! I thought I’m starting to go crazy! Maybe I’m just trying to ignore the fact that there is something seriously wrong with the notebook but can’t seem to accept that fact, since I just bought it not long ago. So after procrastinating for a couple of days, I decided, it’s time to bring it for a check. After prodding and poking, Bryan confirmed that there is Trojan virus and another God-knows what virus. Totally can’t be cleaned out. So he had to install another anti-virus software.
So now I’m praying hard that I won’t get another attack, which I know no way it will end like that, like a fairy tale with a happy ending. Just hoping that with extra protection, it can deter those viruses long enough while I blog in peace.

you're not blaming me right?
Feeling violated eh? Next time, beware cookies bearing Greeks. :)
Wow... Didn't know blogging is so risky...
oh well, good to hear you managed to fix your problem. Can I suggest you get AVG software from the net? It is free for private use.
Zewt: No No. It's not your fault. Must be some stupid website somewhere. Can't recall which website I went to the other day.
Cirnelle: Cookies bearing Greeks?? Hmm...You make it sound like food. heheeh!!
Anonymous: Don't worry.It's not that bad. Everything has it's risk. Don't be discouraged to start your own.
yeah lah... dont simply surf porn.
Porn??!! You really insult my intelligence. Kidding. But no porn. Dunno what photo I was d/l at the mo.
Yeah. Most of these viruses get to you through "cookies".
Mm, get zone alarm. it's free, it'll prevent ppl from hacking in too (not 100% prevention...but better than nothing). Also, get a good antivirus software..and update it often.
Cirnelle: I know. with the pop-up-blocker, still doesn't help. Must find a way.
Alvin: Thanks for the info. :)
