Virus after Windows Update 10/15

Anyone else come into work this morning with a fresh virus? I didn’t notice it until now, but everyone else had an AVG prompt alerting them of the virus first thing in the morning. I’m running a scan now. I thought I was safe until I noticed I was locked out of task manager (its greyed out). Everyone else is unable to run most of the programs on the computer.

Anyone else locked out of task manager as of this morning?

Nope. 200+ computers here, all virus free. :slight_smile:

humm… just did my windows updates today… 7 of 'em

yeah, it was some spoof email/link that did it, not that auto updater…

very nice…

A new phishing e-mail that contains a backdoor virus is making the rounds. Be sure to warn your friends, family or anyone you think would be likely to fall for something like this. Spread the word, not the worm.

The email has a subject line that reads, “Security Update for OS Microsoft Windows” and supposedly came from the "Microsoft Official Update Center" at a domain named securityassurance[at]microsof[dot]com. The message urges users to run an attached file to install an update that the email said will protect from the recipient from security threats and performance problems.

You need to tell your employees to stop clicking every fucking email they get lol

lol

No one, including myself, got that email. Everyone here knows not to run attachments.

just did the restart on my computer and everything is good to go here.

Nevermind… They think it was our software registration tool that got the virus somehow… This is why I use linux at home… Never have to worry about this shit.
