OK so my question is,when you go to the website to “check” your PC, is the FBI installing a sux-net virus fragment so they can shut us all down “whatever” to “keep the peace?”
Just saying..

I think it’s just an excuse to try out their internet
kill switch. I don’t think they would just come out and say
it. They want everyone too make sure to update their systems
before Monday. Whats in the updates?

This is the most exciting news since "Star Flick: The Next Penetration IX" was released!

Anal Chainsaw Massacre comes out tomorrow.

Jason's ass wears a hockey mask then advertises on craiglist and saws up anyone who shows up.

Awesome premise.

Poor headline by Fox. The FBI isn’t shutting down anyone’s internet. It’s shutting down some faux servers that have been seized that were originally the destination of hijacked computers. If your computer isn’t infected by this particular piece of malware, it will connect normally.

Don't think. You obviously have zero grasp of the mechanics involved here. This is nothing of the sort.

These should have been shut down months ago. If they have one virus, they probably have more viruses they are spreading.

What about “The 7 Studs Meet Grizzly” starring Biff McHardcheese that you kept insisting we watch together?
