Re: The virus has infected more than 750 thousand computers
ohh check ithis out...
Today, at home, I was in the living room making a cup of tea... I hear clicking noises coming from my bedroom.
I instantly recognised the noise as it was the sound of a key being pressed on the keyboard. I thought I might have left a book on it.
I went to check it.. and believe it or not, nothing was on the keyboard.. Some password was being typed into the 'Admin Password box'... You can see the encryption being typed... That just shocked me...
I admit, I was a little scared thinking a jinn wanted to browse the web...
I just quickly unplugged it from the mains and took the battery out..

Man, this is one of those threads that I'll remember in IB...
But I had a similar experience with my cousin's com during my stay in his house. I was sleeping in his room, and I wasn't alone. There's like 4 people there including his mother but they were all sleeping. All of a sudden, the fan went off and it started getting hot. I was aware of this and out of the blue, I could hear clicking noises from the computer. So I called out my brother's name(I was half-asleep during this time), thinking he was playing the computer but no one answered. When I took a glimpse at the computer I could hear noises but no one was there. So I began sweating and heard more noises outside of the room. I began to sweat and finally one of my cousins woke up due to the room temperature and switched on the fan. The noises stopped after that. The END, Good Night brother Rashad
Regarding the Virus attack, I don't think that it's true at all. Judging by the user's post-count, he's only here to give us "warnings" and asks us to "download" "Anti Virus" from an "Unknown Website".
