@mushi format C:
-
@zennx yeah, but he will kill us if we tell him that it is his falt. He opens a LOT of religious spans and he wont believe the god his god stuff has virus
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:25:48 UTC from web-
@mushi ...he does know that god can't send e-mails right?
-
@zennx If God wanted to, he could probably send emails. However, I doubt he'd waste his time doing so.

@xtux345 true dat...

@zennx i'm not sure, using his words "These are good e-mails, so there is no way it is not a good thing"

@mushi Bibles can also be considered good, but if you place a presure mine inside it it'll still go BOOM

@zennx logic simply doesnt work for some people

@mushi Download - on a separate computer - Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. Reboot the infected system. Install and run Malwarebytes. It should work.

@chiefanchor i will try something, but most likelly, the "man who fix computers" will fix it
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:30:31 UTC from web-
@mushi I assume that that man isn't you

@mushi Ummm...what anti-virus program are you using?
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:24:43 UTC from web-
@xtux345 i dont remember the name, and i turned it off. at least turning off is allowed.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:31:10 UTC from web-
@mushi What you probably have is a "scareware" program - it's probably not kidding about a few of the infections, but those by their very nature fraudulently report unnecessary false-alarms in an attempt to force you to purchase the license. They're illegal programs.

@chiefanchor I saw it was kidding when it said there was child porn on the computer XD
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:37:09 UTC from web-
@mushi That's a serious claim. Before that system gets wiped, note down anything you can find out about that program - name, publisher, version number, etc.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:38:25 UTC from web-
@chiefanchor yeh, that is a good idea
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:41:52 UTC from web-
@mushi Exact text of what it says regarding child porn detection would be helpful as well, as if it even remotely claims that it will auto-submit a report to law-enforcement agencies, it's blackmail, extortion, and possibly defamation by means of false reporting.

@mushi hello
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 23:01:20 UTC from web-
@rainbowdashfan1234 hello! sorry the late ansewr, i was off
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 23:20:10 UTC from web-
@mushi that alright plus whats it like in brazil
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 23:23:06 UTC from web-
@rainbowdashfan1234 well, i'd say its pretty normal, but i only know this country, so i compare it with any other country. But if people calling you gay just because you dont like soccer bothers you, you wouldnt like XD
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 23:25:15 UTC from web-
@mushi in the u.k we call it football and not much into football or soccer
Friday, 27-Jan-12 15:48:23 UTC from web-

@mushi If I'm thinking right, that is a piece of extortionware on there, not just scareware.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:38:52 UTC from web-
@chiefanchor extortion ware does fit with the whole religious scam style of SPAM mail as well

@mushi That sounds like something completely different than any anti-virus I know of.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:26:00 UTC from web-
@chiefanchor i know, i've never seen it. But when the computer wont let me open anything, and when i try to disable the antivur it only shows the option to buy the licence
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:28:39 UTC from web-
@mushi Name the offending program, please.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:29:50 UTC from web -
@mushi , that "antivirus" program that you're using is a virus itself. You'd best do all you can to remove it.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:30:09 UTC from web-
@xtux345 it came with the lap top, i will see if i can do anything later, for now i will use the desktop computer
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:33:28 UTC from web-
@mushi Wait, wait wait. Where did you GET that computer anyways?
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:34:36 UTC from web-
@xtux345 That's what I'm starting to wonder myself. If they pre-installed a piece of scareware/extortionware onto your system, then there can be some legal muck you to throw at the seller.

@xtux345 my mother is chief of civilian personnel. And people there are always giving her stuff. One day she got home with the laptop
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:36:25 UTC from web-
@mushi Find an OS install disk and wipe the drive, then. At least you can bring it back to normal working order.
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:37:45 UTC from web -
@mushi Was it confiscated from someone? Or a gift?
Thursday, 26-Jan-12 22:37:57 UTC from web-
@xtux345 i dont have any idea XD

@mushi the one thing my mom ever bring home from work are law-related mumbo-jumbo files
-
@zennx she is pretty poppular among these people who work with civillian stuff, but they usually dont give her that kind of gift
