I alway cringe at notes that fly around our communities that warn of this or that virus, scamware, etc. Is it true or is the note itself a scam? Today something crossed my email- "Will the FBI Shut Down Your Internet on Monday?" I've provided a link to this discussion because it is a valid warning. Basically, your computer internet link has been changed so your internet goes through a malicious computer before your message or request is routed on. Look at the linked video for more information. Note that I've seen this malware on several computers in our neighborhoods, and I've seen at least one instance of a "stealth" bug that hadn't changed the route YET, but was still on their computer, presumably waiting for some day when it will be activated.
There is a web site you visit to check if you have a problem and, if you do, to fix it: click here.
