Norman Albers Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 For the last weeks I am having a hard time with computer viruses. Just hanging out here I get AVAST alerts, the latest of which is 'Win32:Delf-GVX'. What do others know??? Oh no, I did not type that greenface.
Phi for All Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Oh no, I did not type that greenface.[/i]You typed ": D" (without the space between or the quotes) and that invoked the code for that big green smiley. To google the virus just add colonD in place of the smiley. This must be a fairly new virus because there's not much out there about it.
Norman Albers Posted January 31, 2008 Author Posted January 31, 2008 Thanks for the explanation, [/]Phi[/b], I was getting spooked.
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Anybody else getting these? It's a bit concerning.
Norman Albers Posted February 1, 2008 Author Posted February 1, 2008 Certainly I have a local problem, Cap'n, things pop up regardless of what sites I am on. More than once some Malware Alert came up just hanging out here, though I should record specifics to be accurate.
insane_alien Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 it could be a preexisting infection thats is connecting somewhere else. while you are looking here. h
Norman Albers Posted February 1, 2008 Author Posted February 1, 2008 I guess I should pursue this up in 'Computers'.
