From where I am its 100% Microsoft and windows.

I have yet to see someone own an Apple.

Several Asian students in my classes had an iphone, ipad and a macbook. 

I know a couple ipad and macbook owners, one of which just got one because he thought he would be cool.

ps- I'm usung the computer in the office at the VFW so I know I can't pass the virus on.(34 miles roundtrip, but only a couple of miles from my stable) What a PITA! I have 2 computers and can't use either one. Death penalty to all hackers!

Hi everybody.Long time reader here.I can fix your problems in less than 10 min.ok,follow these steps.restart your computer in safe mode with networking.Go to yahoo or whatever browser you use.Type in hitman pro 3.5 free download.Download and run this.You get 30 days free.You may have to restart your computer and retry this a few times,as the virus will sometimes try to block it.Do not download hitman pro 3.0 as it will show you the virus's but not remove them.When you run this,it takes only 5 min,delete all checked items.You are good to go now.i would also run a quick malwarebytes scan and delete any thing that comes up.Do a full malwarebytes scan maybe overnight,as it takes a few hours.These are great free tools.A place was going to charge my buddy $100/hour to remove this virus,with a minimum of 2 to 3 hours to fix it.Took me 10 min and he was good to go.Got a free trip to Northfield (bets included) out of it.

Also you can buy Hitman Pro 3.5 for only 20 bucks.Most,if not all anti virus programs suck.A new virus comes out before they figure it out and you are infected.Also,if you get one of those pop ups turn your computer off right away.Do not even hit the red x in the corner.Thats what most people do,thinking it will get rid of the pop up.It wont.It installs it also.This hitman will take care of your problems.So.....if this works for you guys you can buy me a hotdog at Northfield some night rflmao1

I got a new laptop for Christmas, it came loaded with Windows7.(which is very nice) While on Facebook I had a pop-up requesting me to confirm my purchase of "Win 7" security, so I clicked on it. It's a fu*king virus that infected both my computers! I've talked to 4 repair people about it and the 1st question is, "Have you been on Facebook? We are over-run with with "Win 7" infections, and they have all come through Facebook." It costs $100-$140 to disinfect 2 computers and no guarantee that they won't reinfect, because they haven't written a new filter that it can't get around yet. It compromised my VISA acct, which had to be cancelled, but since I notified them immediately I don't have to cover the charges.

Be VERY careful about this until they get it figured out.

I'm really disappointed with the human society lately thumbsdown

I would suggest all readers download and run Hitman Pro 3.5.Its free for a 30 day trial.I think people will be surprised what the scan reveals.On a side note , I have found out its easier to download this on internet explorer then on firefox.Good luck.

Any antivirus program can say it found whatever it wants to.  That doesn't mean that it is legit.

I agree,but hitman pro 3.5 IS NOT an anti virus program.It is a cloud based second opinion scan.100% legit.Its not like that "finally fast" shit and others that show you many more problems then you really have,and then want you to buy their programs to clean your computer.Sure,they would like you to buy their software,and it is well worth the price.But you dont have to.30 days free trial.Like i said,I have been a reader of this forum a long time.Just wanted to help anybody that got one of those bogus virus programs.Malwarebytes,Super anti spyware,Spybot,etc.,are great programs that are free and everybody should have,but they will not get rid of that particular virus (really not a virus,but destructive spyware).As far as anti virus programs,i think they all suck.last year i was using a newer program called Vipre.Ended up with more virus's than I had my whole life.Thats how i found hitman pro 3.5.I am now running free Avast,which i think is as good as anything i have ever paid for.Just trying to help.

Totally correct, Sterno. So many people download or even "buy" their own viruses with Windows-based systems.

I still have several Windows systems, but when they die, they will all be replaced with Macs. I'm even going to buy a Mac this year to put at my other office in Arizona...and I am usually only there one or two days per month. I just can't take using a Windows computer any longer unless it is absolutely necessary.

I must admit though if not for the business write offs, it might be harder to justify the purchase price of Macs.

Maybe one night, but only if one of her boyfriends is not there. By the way, the office utilities cost In The Sulky $100 per month! If I sleep there, that is free.
