Joy: I just noticed that Housepets theme video I made exceeded 10 000 views! Yaay! Image Image

I wonder if the second one I'm working on will be also that popular.
Kind-of-sorrow: even though people like the video, they don't like me even though I put a lot of effort into it Image

Image 9025? How is that even possible? Where did you get that number? Don't you mean that you have 9025 infected files? But 9025 viruses, running at once... your computer wouldn't be even usable, not to mention I have no idea where you could get such insane number.

Win32 is name of a platform, not any virus. But names of viruses are usually written as platformname/malwarefamily, for example Win32/Induc (nasty one, infected Delphi installations and it spread into a lot of legitimate apps distributed over the internet, I remember that we had problem with the magazine I work for with that: we included a program on the CD, which later turned out to contain virus - Win32/Induc, that wasn't known before, unfortunatelly the CD's were already manufactured, though the magazine itself wasn't finished yet).

But you should seriously do something about it and clean your computer and also take some steps towards better security. From what I understand, it's not the first time this has happened, so somebody is doing on that computer something quite reckless, that gets it infected very often...

I am the only one who uses it. I generally check the forums, watch videos, and play games only on it. It is always the exact same virus. It was files infected. My brother erased them all for now.

Well then you're doing something you shouldn't, that causes the infection or you don't have sufficient protection - updated system and enabled firewall, assuming your IP is not hidden behind NAT. And if it's the same virus (which one by the way?) are you sure it even got removed properly? Just because you erase all the infected files doesn't mean it's not hidden elsewhere. Not to mention, there can be another virus/rootkit (rootkits are especially bad, because they operate in ring 0 and they have complete control over anything, even standard reading from the disk, so they can tamper with the security software, so it's more difficult to detect them) hidden in your computer, that downloads other viruses, not to mention that according to your screen, you did just quick scan.

Edit: Also the free version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware doesn't provide real-time protection, which is VERY important to security. Do you have any kind of real-time protection or did you pay for the full version? (I hope you're not one of these, who pirate antimalware software, because you never know who tampered with the cracked version, so it's basically like giving a notorious thief keys from your house and asking him to look after it, while you go to vacation, not to mention that it's kind of rude to the security experts who work hard every day to fight the security threats and keep the AV SW updated)

Flint: It looks like you have a lot of junk files, not viruses, and I know there's programs to clean junk files.

Sorrow: I have to cancel my cell phone, so I'm basically cut off from all my friends miles away. :(
Sorrow: It seems i don't get much respect from anyone, and it seems it's impossible for anyone to keep promises.

Kitela: since when an antimalware software searches for a junk files during antimalware scan and calls them "infected"? Image They're definitely not junk files, maybe you should've read his post and screen more carefully.

Sorry to hear that, Kitela. :( Such people who will respect you and keep promises DO exist, even if you haven't found them.... Where DO people keep finding those types anyway? That seems to be a common complaint.... :?

Dissension: How is that a joy? Image Moderating seems like a necessary nuisance to me (to be the one doing it) and stealing time that can be used to work on something, so it's quite surprising that anyone views that as a joy.
I just remembered how I was offered moderating a large computer forum of the publishing company I work for, along with the other editors, but if I remember, everyone refused. It simply takes a lot of time and isn't paid unlike writing a few articles for the following day (and sometimes some time ahead), so we usually pick some volunteers from the members and editors don't usually mod, because they're busy preparing the content for main sites, so I thought that it feels like nuisance pretty much to anyone.

Aaaanyway sorrow: Blender decided to crash when I let it render something during it night. Image

But also the joy I forgot: Microsoft Office 2010 for Home and Small Business (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote) arrived at friday and I like it even more than Office 2007! (well I tried it long ago, since the early betas, but now I have the full final version) Image

Sorrow: I passed out in the shower and bumped my head, I told my mom to set up a doctors appointment and she's saying that it's genetic and that I shouldn't worry. I say that leaving it alone is the stupidest thing you can possibly do and that I NEED to see a doctor. I hate her so much right now.

well, if it truly is genetic, then unless it needs medication, someone in your family will know how to handle it.

I really hope it wasn't that bad, I don't even know how it happened, I felt like I was losing it so I closed the water and opened the shower door, I passed out right away and I don't even remember opening the door.
