Norton picks it up as "download.ject" and stops it from scripting, thereby rendering it harmless. I got hit with it twice in the last three days. It attacks only those web servers which have not applied a certain patch to IIS software. If you visit a website hosted on a server without the patch, and Scob has found that server, you're vulnerable to "download.ject" if your anti-virus software has not been updated to stop it from scripting.

I switched from Norton to VCOM's System Suite and they use Trend's (I think it is )antivirus system.

I am also using the Firefox browser for awhile and see if I like it.

Thanks, beckett...I am a computer dunce and don't know how to look for this invasion, but I do have Norton on auto update...Norton has never found a virus when it scans my files.

I have my browser set to alert me to all attempted downloads and require permission. I've always wondered if this was protection enough. Surprising how many sites try to download.

And if spyware is a risk, then by all means avoid Drudge's site. He drops anywhere from 3 to 7 spyware programs into your computer per visit.
