Hey guys, I heard on the news recently about the confiker virus. Considereing that eveyone here has a computer and has an interent connection, I though I should warn you. Some of you may know this already, but there is a virus online now that is attatching itself to PC's etc in the system32 files It had affected 12 million PC's by last thursday worldwide
The virus is of yet inactive, however the makers can activate it at any time. Apparently, it grounded the French Air Force planes for several days and is in some government PC's. Microsoft have said to keep using virus checks (once/twice a day) and keep up to date with them.
I hope that no one here has it, and I hope I haven't made anyone feel paranoid or scared, but I'd rather warn you.
For information, wiki has apage on it I think, and below is a link to a website with some info on it.
