I had my netbook up and running well... and then I got ANOTHER frickin' virus.

It happened shortly after Lincpimp rick-rolled me with a gay porn clip. My AV flashed warnings while it played, but my pc still worked, I thought I was safe. Immediately after the next power-on I was virused up. Another one of those that attack your browser and make you buy their AV ware to clean it.

That makes over a dozen viruses over 4 computers in the last 4 months for me. All the same type, a "buy my AV ware" attack.

Can a router get a virus? I was even told by one chick to replace my router.

So I am back. With a new modem, a new router and a used apple powerbook G4. It's a 17 inch with 1g of ram and 60g hd. 1.6ghz processor. I'm not used to this mac OS but I'll figure it out.
