UUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

I have to say that I'm so happy that Dad warned me about the virus thing that pops up with something like "You've got porn on your computer." While I don't think that's what it said, that was pretty much the gist of it and I immediately knew what it was and yanked the power cord to the computer. It doesn't appear that any damage was done but it makes me so mad!!!! So, thanks, Dad for the warning and you all need to be aware that if you get a pop up that says something about porn on your computer, stop reading immediately and don't do anything except yank that cord...hit the power strip...whatever you need to do to turn your computer off as quickly as you can. I know it's hard...I really wanted to read what it said but if you do, it'll be too late, right, Dad?

Yup. It got me at work thankfully.
If you take the time to read it, it will load. Also if you click on any part of the screen (including the "out" X) it will load. Thankfully, on that one, I had the Bradley 'Puter Guys that came over and put it in quarantine.
It never could be erased. So if you get anything that looks like a netscape screen that refers to "Porn on your computer" just dump it like right now. That's the hook. "Porn". You really want to read the rest of the message, but don't do it. It's actually a Trojan Horse.
