My Computer is at Risk!!
« on: January 31, 2003, 08:40:23 PM »

The internet is a very dangerous place; viruses, code, trojans, horses, bugs, worms, batts, mice, you name it, it's got it! I didn't have any form of protection on my computer what-so-ever until I got the following email in my inbox just the other day, it sure was a life saver!

I ordered two of them since the more the better, right? I installed it, and right away I was alerted of some random number said to be coming from France that was trying to break into my computer. I got very nervous at first, thinking that Norton was a virus itself, but sure enough it put an end to that guy by sending him a very annoying noise that's sure to annoy the living hell out of anyone.

Norton also comes with an ultra powerful virus scanner that knows the difference between good code, and bad code. I did an ultra quick scan with the ultra powerful virus scanner and you would not believe what it turned up! 8 viruses! 8 of them! Code Red, Nimda, Sub7, Netbus, you name it it was on my computer! I don't know how they got on there in the first place, but thank goodness for Norton to get rid of them!

Please, if you don't know what the hell you're doing on your computer, and you think that you're very important to the rest of the world, protect your precious collection of 10 mp3s and buy two of these dazzling products for you and your kids, they'll love you for it!
