Captain Awesome Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Just a heads up, it just crashed my computer bad(lost everything) If your computer gets locked up by the "FBI" and requires you to purchase a money pack card and pay a fine or face jail time (due to obvious false claim you are illegally downloading/distributing files or child porn) do a virus scan immediately. When the screen locks up, use control-alt-delete. I tried to restart and do a system restore but my computer was unsucsessful at booting up) Spread the word, don't let it happen to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What file gave you this virus? Are you sure this is spreading through the community? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
