MySpace HELL: Helping a reader of StopScum turns into a Saturday spent in a Virus/Trojan and pop up Hell
Judy called me and wondered what to do. She was sitting at her “kids” computer which is also used by the entire family and MySpace was delivering Trojans/Viruses which Norton AV was catching and deleting. Compounding this weekend attack were full page pops with Advertising and no easy way to close them and a phony Flash security notice to download same. The only other open application was MySpace. I walked her through the appropriate procedures and promised her that I would also take a look.
