Sneakiest Computer Viruses

Mebroot
Starting around the last new year, the Mebroot virus began infiltrating computers' master boot records, the part of the hard drive that loads the operating system, by installing itself from untrusted Web sites. The virus installs keyloggers that are triggered when the infected computer is used to visit any of 900 financial sites, stealing usernames and passwords any time they're typed (and thus eventually stealing your money or identity). Unfortunately, his rootkit hides from most virus protection software, but you can visit GMER to get software that scans and deletes this menace.

Was considering downloading GMER in response to this story. Read User Reviews in PCWorld first, glad I did: 5 negative reviews, 0 positive. No thanks.

I have tried to download this program but just keep going in a circle; I have clicked on the download here points, then directed to another page to download from; nothing ever downloads. Seeing the other comments I may be lucky. I tried writing to GMER and AOL but no reply.
