OSAMA PC VIRUS going around
 

Everyone I am currently over here in China. I run and operate a rc company. I wanted to let everyone know there, and yourself can help put word out,,,, there is a HUGE PC VIRUS going around and it will come via email to offices and other email mailboxes. Its suppose to contain Osama death photos or where you can see them. DO NOT OPEN IT. Also, here, many of the virus programs people have here are not piccking up this exe file or what ever it is on their pc virus program. Be carefull and put word out.

Floating around facebook also

To add - several search engine have been reported to have male ware and trojans tied to them - at least in one of our test boxes - we picked up several hundred from Google and Yahoo - when you click on the link an antivirus programs runs and "Displays" several problems found on your device - but actually doesn't install the trojan until you click on fix the problem found. Also, some links just display a phony image and infect your machine.

Use your common sense - several hackers and script kitties are trying to cash in on others interests.

Easiest way to get rid of this virus if you think you may have it.

Download Malwarebytes ( it's free ) http://www.malwarebytes.org/

Boot into safe mode with networking. ( most of the time on newer motherboards it is F5 or F8 on start up )

Install program and update.

Run full scan to scan the computer.

After it finds the suspect files, click delete. This will require a restart after it is done.

Restart into normal mode.

Virus's gone. This is not a really bad virus, just one that likes to be annoying.

+1 for Malwarebytes
