Take a good strong magnet and run it up and down your hard drive, I guarantee it won't be on there when you're done.

your dumb... macs can still get viruses... and anybody who thinks they can't, you are fucking retarded. any computer that has access to the internet can get some sort of virus/trojan.

Thats really bad, but I'm not 100% sure what to do. This is beyond an anti-virus program so dont bother. You're basically screwed. If you can still run your comp well eneough, back everything up that you need, make sure music is all on an MP3 that you can get it back off of, etc. More of a question, would turining off the web connection help anything?

yes you are rite they can. but it is much much harder to get a virus/trojan or watever you want on a mac. essetially you have to go searching for it. there are also far fewer virus written for macs because they comprise such a small percentage of the computer market. having a mac just makes life easier. and im just wonderin do you own a mac or a pc?

dude jim back off on kjell he didnt send it to us on purpose. when each of us opened the link it like automatically sent it over and over to everyone online on our contact list. i was sitting there watching my computer send this fucking virus to like 50 contacts 10x each and i couldnt stop it or sign off or anything. ive been working on getting rid of this thing all night though and my computers going online and working again and shit but its not completely gone yet i dont think.

unplug your intenet cord whenever you dont need to use your internet for now and take it in to get fixed if you cant delete it.
