Hi all  :)
Nice to be sumwhere virus free. :P
James seems to have turned up at last and fixed it, but he didn't say any more about it.
Would have been nice if he'd posted something advising ppl to virus check their PCs. And said what the problem was and what he was doing about it.

Avast free picked it up alright so that would be a gd alternative for ppl with the paid ones that missed it.

I use MSE and it didn't detect anything but when accessing the home page FF went loopy.

Define loopy... it crashed it?

It froze the machine for about 5 minutes before I could kill the process.

Then I started my recovery process.

OT I just believe I have seen a monsoon going past my window!

If you are in the NW, watch out!

He was in and out like a rat up a drainpipe so nobody saw him till he'd gone.
At least he didnt tell us to turn it off and on again. :P

I havent visited dslzone for a while, it became very evident the owner had left it to rot as there was no maintenance been done on it.

my email address there is a free hotmail account so not too bothered, but contents of some of my pm's had confidental info in them.

I dont plan to even access the site now since I dont know which urls' are infected and it seems from what another person has posted nod32 may not be able to detect the trojan.
