First Reported JPEG Virus Found

[merkus]

i am not worried what so ever. all i need to fix this baby is to reformat(which I do every 2 weeks or so any way)

[gibsinep]

You reformat every 2 weeks :eek:

I am not worried all the major virus protection companies will have a cure for it. Then we will be safe, or I will be safe. :D

[merkus]

Advice: To have top notch performance, format every 2 weeks.

[gibsinep]

Nah, not that much of a need with Windows newer Os's like 2k and XP.

I haven't reforated in about 8 months and have no performance decrease

[merkus]

my win2k gets slow :( even though i have no items starting up it's all good though ..used to my 2 week format schedule

[gibsinep]

My XP pro doesn't slow up. :)

merkus, what do you know about dragmentation and defragmenting?

[merkus]

i do that when i go to sleep

:t

[gibsinep]

Don't forget virus scans as some virus can make it through a reformat

[merkus]

i erase my mbr and delete partitions most of the time i switch hd's

:t

[gibsinep]

However some virus can hang out in the chipset of the motherboard

[merkus]

lol really pretty weird..i even flashed too (just incase any viruses preside in the bios rom) i don't think it's a virus

[gibsinep]

No I dont think you have one just warning you though about different possibilities in case you didnt know Whic I think you did ;)

[merkus]

yeah I know it's quite alright maybe it's all those spyware programs :mad:

:t

[gibsinep]
