The malware on Original Asia stte

[bRETT]

This was mentioned on one of the Carl Palmer threads, but I thought it should be pinned: Don't go to that site (esspecially not if you're on Internet Explorer, which is more vulnerable) and delete it if you have it as a bookmark. What's there appears to be the SMART virus, one of those fake-alert things that shuts your computer down (see bleepingcomputer.com or details).

Like some people here I learned the hard way a while back (but didn't realize thats where it was). I was luckily able to get rid of it using Combo Fix after the usual fixes like Malware Bytes didn't get it.

Of course it may be gone by now, but I am not about to check.

Was this thought out, or more a heat of the moment kinda thing?

Don't Cry, just run your protective scans.

Only Time Will Tell.

But Never in a Million Years will I visit that website again.

I mean, Open Your Eyes, Sean! That website would be like an Orchard of Mines for your computer.

I just Wish I'd Known All Along, then I could have prevented problems.

That's just the sort of thing ya get for searching for Asia XXX.

Lol - Asia and geekery in one package, what's not to like?

[JKL2000]

It was put there intentionally to get us Yuppets.

And the moral of the story is?...

(C'mon, it's an easy one!)
