My computer at work got nailed with a virus yesterday afternoon.
It started out, right while I was working, with a popup popping up and starting to scan the computer for viruses. When it finished scanning, it showed a half dozen viruses that needed to be removed, and another page popped up trying to sell a program to get rid of the viruses for $49.95. That itself is part of the virus. If you fall for it, and try to buy it, they have your credit card number and you still have the virus on your computer. And the popups don't respond to efforts to delete them from the screen.
I didn't fall for it, I simply called our resident computer wizard. He had a program on a flash drive that was supposed to get rid of it. Only the virus had my computer locked so the program wouldn't install.
At that point, it was my quitting time, and the wizard said he'd have to do some research on the Internet to find out how to proceed, and that he'd have it fixed before he left for the evening. The wizard hasn't been in yet today, but my computer was working OK when I came in this morning. Out of my own curiosity, I'll have to discuss it a bit further with the wizard next time I see him.
