Their are too many viruses to list, so they dont have a list of the Top 10, but you can find more info online about common viruses.Oh, ok. Are there any viruses that can reprogram (legit) anti-virus programs? I've got a friend who's Norton Security told him he had hundreds of critical viruses headed towards his computer. It didn't seem quite normal, to be honest. I suppose this is similar to the McAfee thing everybody is talking about on this thread. Correct me if I'm wrong. Crab Commando (krab-ka-man-doh); noun

Some viruses can shut down your anti virus but I don't think they can do anything else. I think your friends computer is either being hacked were a hacker is sending viruses towards him or he is on a website trying to download programs wirlth viruses in them. Correct me if I am wrong. Also, I don't think it is similar to the cases with the Mcfee.

Nimda, actual "hacking" is an incredibly rare thing involving civilians - you have to really anger the wrong damn person to ever be at risk of "being hacked".
The most likely thing is he's either got ahold of a virus that is hijacking his browser and forcing him to visit infected sites, or his Norton is just freaking out over something - Norton is known for going haywire at the slightest provocation, and occasionally one or two viruses will send it into a frenzy. ![]() The Octopus of The Committee.

Opps. Sorry. Sorry I was using the wrong words. And yes, Norton is basically sensitive to viruses. It acts like someone on fire... anyways, again, has anyone tried ESET yet? I might consider buying it...

I'm afraid I might get one now because a moderator on another website was stupid enough to abuse his power and post my IP.
Then I report him, and, guess what? He gets away with that, and bans me. What an idiot. Love Beyblade? then why not join the Soulless Children? You a brony? Join this forum and say Ultimatefry sent you! Extras. (Click to View) ![]() Statishicks (Click to View) |

Uh oh. I'm afraid for you. People do abuse power, that's for sure. Make sure to turn on your firewall! This will give you enough time to disconnect from the Internet so people cant attack you with viruses.

You know proxys only protect you from websites trying to find your Ip. You need to change your proxy in order to stop people from attacking you. They already know your real IP address..

I'm still panicing. I don't know how to help you. I'm scared. I'm alone. I have no life... Anyways just remember to turn off the Internet if people decide to attack. This will cut off the connection to your computer. BEWARE OF THE HACKERS.

What makes it worse is that one of the members knows some hacker friends that are GOOD at what they do.

Its more like a 60's word... Anyways, I don't think anyone would try to hack your computer. That would be basically useless... unless you have a bunch of valuebal stuff on the computer... or if they wanted to be a bully...

I honestly don't get the point of a virus that just messes up your computer and nothing else.
