AntiVirus Pro

[sfmarine]

Well...today was interesting. I recently purchased a Macbook Pro. I decided to break out the old laptop today. It did its job for the 5 years she's been in service. I'm on it not even 30 mins and the thing completely becomes hijacked buy a Virus program that looked like it was from Microsoft. ctrl alt dlt wouldn't function. It kept linking me to adult movie sites lol. Very chaotic. They call this scare ware because it basically tricks you into thinking your problem was severely in trouble.

Youtube really didn't help me as far as getting it fixed. I tried a bunch of things and managed to close down the system but from what I've read, the lovely people who made this thing are constantly changing the file names so it's hard to search for. I found a few but decided to blow the whole thing away. I couldn't find it at all in my registry files.

I'm still ticked AVG didn't pick it up. My main reason for posting this is my laptop is running like a champ now. So it appears to be back to normal. However, just recently my keyboard started to become inconsistent. My letters were all messed up and jumping all over the place. I know I've been drinking a lot of eggnog but I'm not that bad of typist. I rebooted it thinking it was a glitch. I just updated everything and she's back to normal with SP3 but no budge. Is this virus related or is this just a mere coincidence? Same day my laptop gets infected, my keyboard craps out?

If you get the virus...start praying. Anyone else get it? Thanks


EDIT: now the keyboard is working
