Malware may knock thousands off Internet on Monday 9-July-2012

post #1 of 5

The warnings about the Internet problem have been splashed across Facebook and Google. Internet service providers have sent notices, and the FBI set up a special website.

But hundreds of thousands of people around the world may still lose their Internet service Monday unless they do a quick check of their computers for malware that could have taken over their machines more than a year ago.

Despite repeated alerts, the number of computers that probably are infected is more than 277,000 worldwide, down from about 360,000 in April.

Don't be one of those "it ain't gonna happen to me" - You are just one click away to be sure.

Do it!
