I am back.

After several days of inactivity, I finally got my comp back. I had gotten a virus, and had to get my computer wiped. It was from Deviantart.

Anyways, thought I would warn you.

Re: I am back.

You got it from Deviantart? How come so many popular sites have viruses on them? Now to add to the small list of dangerous popular sites:
Kongregate
Deviantart

If you spread malware through a popular website, obviously many people will be infected by it. And that's what malware developers want.

Welcome back, TheSaint.  smile

Paradox, I tried, but it wouldn't let me go on the internet. Either way, its fine now, and I know never to go on there again.

I got that. After reluctantly pressing the button I realised that it was a virus and disconnected the internet before it finished. Lucky for me the internet was slow that day so it didn't finish downloading. Then I did a scan before turning the internet back on.

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.

Re: I am back.

I heard about it in the Mcleodgaming forum (lol)
Apparently, some hackers hacked into DA and inserted a virus.
It doesn't affect all computers though.
