Have you ever got a computer virus before?

Zeraxreborn a dit :
I've never gotten a virus before.

Once saw an ad that told me that my browser needed flash and I should download it. Instantly knew it was a virus because Chrome don't even use flash, but the average person don't know that.

Advice:
-Use adblock
-Don't download random shit
-Don't use those shitty anti-virus programs that make you pay an annual fee because they suck
-(Personal Opinion) AVG anti-virus free is best anti-virus program, use it

but mcafee protects me from EVERYTHING and we pay for it

Don't know all the paid anti-virus programs, but I do recall that Norton is probably one of the worst ones because it doesn't do anything.

I'm scared to tell my mum cuz last time it got a virus this happened:

Mum: FFS [insert my name here] THIS IS THE 9TH LAPTOP YOU'VE HAD!! :throws laptop out of the window: GRRR

Me: :sits in corner crying: I so sarreh T^T

#31

yes, I forgot the name though.
frustrated me so much

#32

no......

#33

Yes. This topic should be changed to Have you ever got Malware. Because a virus is malware. Malware is defined as and malicous software on your computer.

hail

I dont think i've ever gotten a virus before or if i have i probably didnt know it
but one time when i was like 10 i was playing webkinz or something and internet explorer just like stopped and i couldnt get on it for daays and then some i.e update popped up, dwnloaded it and i.e was fine...

#36

i got a trojan once and it just multiplied on my pc like meiosis

never forget

#37

hmm i also remember i had a virus that only affects windows xp computers and windows vista, it disables all paths to internet. When you try clicking on your browser, it makes your backround black. It also ate away files and such. No connection to wifi. Pretty scary.

Dimandmouse a dit :
There was this German Police Virus goin around in 2012 and my BROTHER (thanks a lot) got it for me for my birthday! ON MY NEW GOD DAMN LAPTOP

what does that virus do?! :P

#39

i think i've had a couple, but they weren't that serious, they just slowed my pc down

i was able to notice them pretty quickly because of that though and they were pretty easy to get rid of

i'm probably lucky to not get infected by something more serioues, i tend to be sort of reckless when it comes to downloading stuff

I had one in our old computer.
It came from a game site.
Never played that again o.o
