Currently I was the victim of ID theft, some one make pretrial offer of merchandise through internet for organic vitamin, I place an order but the merchandise was never ship to me, and my credit card was clean out by this animal, until I can not purchase prom dress for my daughter, my credit was use in Las Vegas, Colorado, etc, it was distribute until all my money gone & ruin my credit history

So every one let sign petition for Identity theft / cyber crime will be punish as death penalty.

I would also have to agree that Internet Explorer is not the best way to go. I really only use it because windows makes your life very difficult if you don't use their preferred software, but I am reconsidering it after this. When I attempted to open a page in the browser to download the programs I need to get rid of this horrid virus, it wouldn't load anything and told me that every single page I tried visiting was blocked for some security reason. If it weren't for Safari, which worked fine, I would never have been able to get what I needed.

I would generally consider myself pretty tech savvy and I am the go-to person in my family for computers. I'm only saying this to warn anyone who may think that their knowledge about these sorts of things will prevent them from contracting it.

I GOT THIS VIRUS FROM A FACEBOOK APPLICATION, so beware. I didn't even get all the way through the page before my computer froze up. I'd suggest just not adding any new applications until this virusmania is under control. Or if you feel you must, message the person who sent you the app request to make sure it is legit.]]>Jun 4th 2009 3:10AMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/06/03/40-000-hacked-web-sites-could-infect-your-computer/http://www.switched.com/2009/06/03/40-000-hacked-web-sites-could-infect-your-computer/If you got it too and are unsure where to go from here, this is what I'm currently doing to restore my computer.

Go to download.com
-search for and download "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware" (or just type in mbam). Run a full system scan, even if it takes forever, because its worth it to not overlook anything.
-do the same thing with a program called "Super anti spyware". I realize the name sounds fake or generic but i've seen both of these work in the past.

*It's important to use both because one removes spyware and one removes malware.]]>Jun 4th 2009 3:13AM
