i installed norton and windows vista many years ago

only the doomageddon virus

Ha, yes
It was when I was like, 9. My sister's tell me it's because of Animal Jam, but I think it's because of the computer we had. I remember my mom was getting professional help from a company

unfortunately when i was younger, yes.

yes i had the fbi warning one where it said that you possessed child porn on ur computer or something and i cried I was like 13 Nd i had another one that i got from a site that i went on from googling pictures of mrs claus. like santa claus's wife.

I'm pretty sure everyone did...


When I wasn't even in school my computer was super slow for some reason, perhaps the code red virus? Not long after I was born this huge virus would spread worldwide and slow your computers to a halt.

The most recent big virus infection I had was in 2009, when the computer apparently found 300 Trojan horses for some reason... I don't even know how I got them

Since then I got a few adware.generic but they weren't that bad and I quickly deleted them with AVG

i got that one once and until now i didn't know it was a virus
i just always assumed im on some nsa watchlist from obtaining some mysterious child porn i never knew about

koobface in 2010

yes it had a naked stripper on it and it was ugly

I got this ransomware on Android phone

mm nope, but I came pretty close a few times when I was much younger, like 11 or so. I wasn't admin on the computer, and so I had to ask my dad to install things, and fortunately he was able to tell potential malware from legit programs.

no

but I was trying to download this wolf game and I didn't have google for a while lol

yeah.
back in 2013, i got this popup on my laptop saying my computer is in danger, and i need an antivirus to help with it and told me to download something. since i was 11 then, and very naïve, i downloaded it. i don't remember what i did after that, i believe i restarted my computer, but my laptop wouldn't let me connect to the internet. i tried going on with google chrome, nope. mozilla firefox, nope. internet explorer, nope. each time i tried getting online, it said something along the lines of "your firewall has blocked this for your safety." i was freaking out and i told my mom about it, she did what she could to help me with it. later that night, i believe my dad had to factor reset my laptop, because it was really bad, since it had even more viruses that caused my computer to run slow. we first saved my drawings and other things we knew for a fact were safe, then reset my computer so it was basically new again.

more recently, my sister got this virus that would like... pop up as soon as she loaded up her computer, and would block her computer completely to keep her from doing anything on it. not to mention it gave a loud and annoying beeping noise, and it would still continue after the computer was muted. luckily, since her computer is on her tv screen, we were able to mute the beeping.
i believe this is the pop-up she got:

Spoiler

i had to load her into safe mode until my dad got home so he can fix her computer, she wasn't very happy with me, but oh well.

I am impressed that I haven't gotten one yet

yes.... too many times to count
even this computer is stuffed with hidden malware that i couldnt bother cleaning but it still works great

My laptop has many viruses now actually, that's why I need a completely new laptop

Y e s

I've managed to delete all but one with Anti-Malwarebytes and Windows Defenders but
I remember a huge one

It happened last year, I slipped into naive mode when I went to a website to try and get membership for what I see is a worthless game today
So it sent me to this fake thing where I had to "update" one of my current apps to get it

I fell for it.
And I got fucking Tobisha on my computer.

Okay, I did get it erased and I uninstalled it, but that didn't mean that there were still other viruses lurking on my computer
Everyday I had to uninstall shit and check stuff with Anti-Malwarebytes and Windows Defenders and erased things with CCleaner


But one day it got worse.
A new thing popped up, but no matter how many times I uninstalled it, no matter how many times I scanned my computer with Windows Defenders, it wouldn't stop coming back, and I couldn't access Anti-Malwarebytes. Not even using Anti-Malwarebytes Chameleon worked either

So my dad had to reset and backup my computer
So this is where I am no without a virus... so far

yes it was living hell cause ads were all over the page
back when i used tfm rip offs, don't do those pls

probably, a month ago everything was really slow and wouldn't load. So I had to reset everything, and somehow it works again. I don't know if it was a virus or not but..

That's very scary and absolutely frightening. Someone must've put a lot of thought into making it look realistic. You must've been absolutely terrified receiving this message containing private and revealing information. Also, it's retarded asking for moneypaks as a reliable source of payment. In reality, they would just arrest you on the spot and not give you a scare tactic. If I was in your position, I would contact local authorities about this issue and do research on this particular ransomwware.

While staying on topic, I only got a virus once. Malware bytes and AVG took care of it instantly and it was barely an issue. I'm thankful that I was responsible enough not to download random things.
