recently i doscovered a virus called funlove on my
computer
it attaches itself to other exes (in this case
almost all of my bots)
when run it installs a startup exe for the bot
(C:/windows/flcss.exe)-if you have this file your
computer is infected
it randomly searches for files to attach to (.exe
and .ocx) and will eventually cause the system to
render unstable
i have not been able to clean it from my computer
because the virus has attached to my virus scanner
and caused several files to be corrupt. thus i
cannot run uninstall or re-install mcaffe.
tomarow im going to get norton and see what
happens
if you have downloaded/accpeted a bot/exe/ocx from
me or the flcss file is in your computer you are
infected. this virus gets in all writable drives
including floppies. the longer its in your system
to harder it is to get rid of.
i have closed the bot portion of my site and will
be postng alerts on bots eqquiped with the auto
upgrade function
until this virus is cleaned i will not be
making/distributing bots or any other files.

common orgion is newsgroups.
there was one post in one of these newsgroups that is
starting to concern me... i dont remember where and im
still looking for it but it was a post with a file
disguised as a sound file with an unknown extension...
hope aw looks into it
