WSAR: Takin' A(n) (Enforced?) Break

[SmokestackJones]

Hey there,

Just a heads-up. Due to contracting at (PC) virus, I'm gonna be taking a break from doing the WSAR reports. I can still converse with youse guys (weekends when I'm at work), but I'll be out of the WSAR loop for a while. Carry on...

Is this thing a Toaster?

Sorry to hear about that Smokestack. If it's Nimda a friend of mine has the fix for it. Viruses totally suck. Well, when you do get more going feel free to send 'em to me and I'll upload them for download.

Hey ObJosh,

Thanks. Last week Becky installed something that installed a Trojan Horse. Many applications of MacAffee, AVS, Ad-Aware, etc. later, it's gone. But the damage has been done and looks like we'll have to reinstall (Win98-first edition OEM).

Symptoms: I can logon, but can't get to any sites (can't find server), due to the fact that the OS writes a 0K temp file to my temp folder every bloody minute that the PC is on.

And the beat goes on...

Damn, well, with my limited knowledge of viri, just because I think they're horribly cruel and let my friends learn all about them instead, but I completely understand. Well, hope you get it fixed soon because we all love our favorite news station WSAR.
