Subject: Bopp, is there a virus on this site? |
|
|
I was posting a reply on the Charles, Bible board and got a pop up message and audio that the Zeus virus has infected my computer and I should call Microsoft.
I just ran a scan from my anti-virus - and no issues found. Snopes is saying this is a bogus warning - no surprise there. I've never known Microsoft to alert people to viruses and tell you to call their number. I get warnings from my antivirus if I click on something malicious - and I don't have Microsoft antivirus.
So...that fake warning is coming from either this site or on the NASB's site.

Cinnamon,
It is likely you do have either a virus or more likely some adware installed on your computer. I highly recommend removing it. See link for one possibility.
Cheers
Jim

I knew right off it was a hoax. It's the only time this has happened.
But...I am due to have the computer guy come over. So....will have him check too. Actually, I may be due for a new computer.
