Sorry that I left chat so quickly lastnight. I didn't intend to.
I just got kicked off and a page came up telling me that I had a virus! (in my puter, not my body )
I couldn't get back on, I couldn't do anything untill I ran an anti-virus that was shown on my screen!! As I was about to run it, I noticed that there was a charge to down load it!
I quickly got out of it and shutdown my puter and called the Son-inlaw (an IT guy) I ran the puter over to their house about 8:30 and he started to clean it up.
I just went back over this AM to pick it up. My daughter told me that he found over 20 viruses and worms!! and he thinks they all came in at once!
FROM THE CHAT!
Anyone else have a problem lastnight during chat????

Yup, two weeks in a row I've been attacked on the Chat. Last week it wanted me to download its own anti-virus stuff, but I was able to get out without doing that. This week, AVG just booted me out and I didn't even try to get back in. I ran SpyBot and it said I didn't have any bad stuff on the computer.

I was afraid of that!
It was such a supprise that I didn't think about all the others until later.
It was a first for me.

UP WITH THIS I WILL NOT PUT!!

Im sorry but, I wont be on "Chat" for awhile if at all. If it wasn't for my son-in-law saving me, I wouldn't know what to do and would be with out a puter even now.
I understand that there is not much anyone can do about it but, I'm going to be very careful what I do and where I go on the internet for awhile.

PS Jan installed AVG 9.0 for me as a safety net for virses but, I dont trust anything right now.

Roger, now calm down!!!! I use AVG and it's what kicked me off of the Chat before I was infected. I've also started using SpyBot for what AVG might be missing.

So, I would imagine each time one of us was kicked off last night, it was because of our anti-virus software kicking in and taking us out of harm's way.

So, just in case you haven't set up a daily anti-virus check, please do. My AVG runs at 6 pm every evening, but only if I have the laptop on. So, if I'm not home to let it run automatically, I just set it up to run later. I also make sure the updates are run automatically, also.

We just have to try to protect ourselves from those nasties

Verna

EDIT: AVG says I have no infections. I love that AVG

I contacted the chat operators, they will correct like they did before . the meanies break in from time to time

As always keep your anti virus and all security checks updated and ON.

there has got to be a simpler safer way perhaps a Yahoo chat or something similar where only certain members are allowed in. Not a Free WIDE OPEN chat. thats where the problem lies.
