Last week I signed on as usual and did some routine maintenance! I used my
uninstaller to remove a program, and then went to reboot! When I went to
reboot, I recieved the illegal operation after I entered my password, and
the detail was a general fault at explorer.exe. Being a Gateway customer, I
called them after the 4th attempt and they assisted me for 3 hours, trying to
averride the exe fault. they finally told me there was a nwe Trojan horse
Virus and assumed that this was it! I was so badly corrupted that I couldn't
even save my work through DOS, and am now having to rebuild my graphics
files! i had been working on adding several new pages to my site, they are
gone!
I know this isn't your fault because awhile ago i recieved happy.exe, after
recieve a good will e-mail from same person! My difference was that I
cconstantly have an updated list of new viruses that is sent by my best
friend from EDS Corporation, she is a Virus Tech there! This list sits next
to me, and I look at it all the time, it is also a reminder to my children!
Due to what has happened, I am NOT accepting ANY FWDS, because I believe I
got Happy Halloween Trojan Horse, which is not an exe, it says Happy
Halloween and appears as a regular e-maol. It was discovered the day I got
shut down!
I wil remain on the list, as I am aware that accidents will happen to any
of us at any time! Luck to all, Lisa
