Default Wow I got attacked lastnight

Man I was sitting here loafing around on the net and damn I got hit by 3 virus's at one time. it damn near killed my computer. Taking over my internest options, internet exploror, and getting into my c drive. It was some user in Atlanta that was doing it because I logged the ip so I reported all of it to microsoft and had to do the whole restart my computer from a prev. date thing. Why in the hell do trolls get on a computer with the intent to do this crap, I'd like to slap the **** out of these kind of people.

Whenever that happens to me, I just unplug my wireless netgear thing to shut off the internet. Then I fix it with like HijackThis or whatever other programs I happen to have.

md do you have a firewall in place? If not, I strongly suggest one; hardware works best but software will do the job as well. Most commonly spoofed IPs: 127.0.0.0 - 127.255.255.255; 224.0.0.0-239.255.255.255; 240.0.0.0-254.255.255.255 recommend blocking all. Also recommend blocking TELNET port. Obviously this won't prevent all attacks but it will help.

Nortons pretty good. Expensive, but good. Just tends to be a little overzealous when it comes to blocking stuff...Like I can't see the sponsors on the main page!!!
