Virus on Firetalk.

Joe Casey · From: Weeki Wachee .Springs FL (population.9)

It took me three days to figure out what was happening. I would lose a little at a time finally It wiped out my modem. Be careful if you are using firetalk it's a sneaky creaping virus . I won't be 100% back until a couple of days. I had to install new modem and all my saved stuff won't be recognized yet. I have to figure that out. anyhow I'mm Baaaaccck.

If you can run executable programs, there is always the risk for a virus, no matter how innocent the program looks. I have heard of viruses inside of Looney Tunes screen savers. The Mellissa virus was nothing more than a bad program with a WinZip self-extractor logo on it. In the world of e-mail and downloads, NEVER judge a book by its cover. Always know who you are downloading from. If you have never heard of XYZ.com or don't have any reason to trust them, then don't download anything.
