Britney Spears virus links in posts

[Steve St.Laurent]

JFaughn, I'm not clear on what your trying to say. I don't see anything being added to your posts and the Gold prospector site link posted just like it should. This version of the software does go to the site and get the page name and changes the visible link to that name (the link behind still goes to what you linked).

What I was talking about is the text at the beginning of the post , I never put that there , it is the only place I see it though .
Thanks John

The mac text you mean? There statements about macs on both your posts but they are different on each one. I don't see it on your most recent post though. I would say that if you didn't put that text there then you did have a virus although it doesn't look like the same one as this one.

ran multiple anti virus scans and hope it got it. This is a test.

Nope, it's still there. Contact your anti-virus provider. So far it seems like Norton is the only one that's catching it right now and that's probably luck. This is a brand new virus - looks like it hit the world around June 23rd.

Good Evening Guys,



I had the same problem with the britney virus and rad several different scans. I finally went on line and found a google pack that has spydocter for free. I just download the spydoctor part and ran a scan. It found 11 different infections that none of the other scanning programs caught. It seems to have removed the britney virus from my system. I sent myself an e-mail to make sure it was removed. So maybe give it a shot.

Bad news - looks like you still have it. It evidently doesn't look for private message post forms, just public ones.

Testing again after complete wipe and reload. None of my computer experts ever fond a virus.

 

[KSnyder]

Testing to see if it is finally gone.

For one of the project groups at work we were testing out various different anti-spyware programs. We found that most of the different big name programs find some spyware, but miss alot that others do find. . One of the popular named pgm demos actually installed false spyware and then was the only one that detected it making you want to buy the full version to remove the thing. After all was said and done, we stuck with Symantec Corporate Anti-virus along with Spyware Doctor, and lots of filtering on the exchange servers. Those two pgms have been giving fairly good results.

But an interesting statistic is about 80% of corporate hacking comes from "Within"
