Security - January 2007

i got an email saying that if i got an email that said "invitation", don't open it. they said it was a virus that would burn my c drive. they said to email it to all your friends to let them know.

is this another annoying circulating email, or is it real?

Hey,

I was wondering if the site noveltyidmaker.com is selling real fake IDs or if they just a scam... If somebody could help me it would be greatly appreciated!

well its all on here: http://www.thenerdnetwork.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=45802

but this is the part im doing:
Step one - Create a new user in windows xp that is different from your logon. You must have administrator rights.

Step two - Copy and paste ALL of your directories, files, documents etc from your old user account into your new user account.

Step three - test to make sure that you have transferred every over.

Step four - delete your old user account.

Step five - right click on a file that previously activated the virus.

Step six - have a nice day because you will find that the virus is gone.
is there a better way to get rid of the DrWatson error?
or how do i do step #2-6

I use Norton Antivirus and have been disabling the auto-protect feature when downloading Windows XP security updates or for Adobe Reader, Windows Media Player etc. Would rather not do that if it isn't necessary.

the sites you visit are safe to go to? using calling id from the site callingid.com will give you whatever you want to know about any site on the web. check it out. the download is free, and the companion program is also free. you'll find out how many bad sites you've been going to, and also which sites are safe. you even find out where they are, and who owns it.

Because some files are missing, uninstall will not remove the program.
