IRC Alert

As a lot of us are always in #jj2...

When I logged onto Windows, McAfee popped up asking for updates, and in the recent threats window, 3 of the viruses, all on low alert, were IRC related.

IRC/Flood : http://vil.mcafee.com/dispVirus.asp?virus_k=98936
IRC/Flood.i : http://vil.mcafee.com/dispVirus.asp?virus_k=99246
IRC-Sdbot : http://vil.mcafee.com/dispVirus.asp?virus_k=99410

Those links will take you to a page with information about each of the viruses, ways to clean your system, infection signs, etc.

But, as these are on low risk, you don't have to run around in the streets screaming "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!" After all, Microsoft hasn't released Melissa II yet.

P.S. What do you think of my new Signature? ;-P

The AntiMcDonalds forums have turned into the JCF. Now includes the "spontaneous corrupt" feature.

(That was a fanchy smanchy way of saying that the forums are broked. AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT TOO.)
