| Apparently I've had a run-in with Win32 Vitro... it's a virus. A bad one. It's hit 518 executable files on my computer and it's constantly replicating itself into more and more executable files. It took out my fucking Doom port on all backups. The scary thing is, out of that 518, only 28 WERE NOT IN MY BACKUP PARTITION. So I have to reformat and remove everything. I'll be back in a day or so I assume. I don't even know how the fuck it got on me, but I suggest everyone that reads this post keep a fucking eye out for this thing and go look it up. It's a virus that replicates itself and uses polymorphism to escape virus scans and attacks any and all .exe files on your computer.
Anyway... shutting comp down. Be back later. | |

| Update on this virus...
It's apparently a brand new strain of the virus, "Vitro" infects through the web browser and then goes from there. I will be out for a few days or so, this thing is that bad. The ONLY thing that can even detect it is Avast! but that fails to do anything to it.
What's going to happen is I'm having my entire computer wiped to high-level clearance specifications and then overwriting all that data.
Anyway, I'm done for a few days. Stuck in Linux since I dualbooted it. This sucks. fjidapjpaafas
