It seems that since I posted a few responses on the Yahoo forums, as well as on this blog, that I've come under attack via my computer. Call me crazy but I never receive any e mail from my admin account on one of my websites.Until earlier yesterday. In it, was an attachment that was named STD_411.zip. And of course, Mr.curious here figured He has McAfee "Live Safe" running, so there's no way the executable file could infect my PC.
I was wrong.
Not only did I unzip it, but clicked on the .exe file (That had a .PDF Icon), it didn't detect shit. Quickly, I unplugged my PC, and sat back wondering what damage (if any) had already been done. On my phone I quickly started changing my Facebook, Yahoo, Google, and other app passwords.
I then researched this "Trojan". It's new, it's nasty, and it took Windows Security Essentials, FREE, by the way, to find and clean it.
Word to the masses. Don't be an idiot and think that your immune from viruses just because your running anti virus/malware programs. This little sucker probably already took data off of my hard drive.
