Well I think I have the conficker virus/worm. :O
If you havent heard of it, just search for it theyre are many pages on google about it.
Anyway, I know I have some kind of virus.
I got a file download, with no details, or a progress bar, and it opened from internet explorer, and not Firefox, while I was using Firefox :S.
And strange thing is, the conficker was supposed to be activated today, and what it was supposed to do was download instructions from one of their thousands of websites which were set up randomly, and cant be taken down (or atleast all of them). After these instructions are downloaded, no one knows what it does so far because it's not reportedly activated on anyones PC yet. But what many think is it will just be a keylogger and steal passwords and financial data. I'm not worried about that though, it's not that hard to reformat :P.
Its wierd though that I updated my Windows from microsoft which was supposed to stop the vulnerability that it used to get into your pc.
So if anyone has any details about what this might be, please tell. :P
This is just kinda ironic that i get that today.
EDIT: WTF? Now i have some random spyware scan from a program I've never installed 0_0
Time to reformat now! xD
