stupid virus
So I managed to obtain the W32.Rontokbro@mm virus somehow. It pops up on my symantec scanner and I reboot and it will sometimes go away. If I leave my laptop on at school, it will usually come back. I have tried everything to try and remove it, but it keeps coming back. Do you think I keep getting it from my school network? I find that it will nto pop up when I am at home.
I know NOTHING about virus' but it's the logical assumption to say yer school is infucted.............
Those tender little burgers with them little, itty-bitty grilled onions that just explode in ya mouth like flavor crystals every time you bite into one.. just makes me want to burn this muthafuka down.... Come on, Pookie, let's burn this muthafuka down!!!
Stay away from norton and mcafee. Even 360...No offense to those that like it....Just take it from me...I do virus and spyware removal on Many machines on a daily basis at my shop. I know what doesnt work.

If all you are running is Norton, try running Anti spyware software as well. Most likely if you are virus infected you're probably infected with spyware/malware as well.
