Pardon the Vanity, but I thought it might be good to post for not only myself but for others that did the same thing. Last night, when the link was posted on this forum, I went to see what Ahmadinejad's blog looks like. Only after I clicked on the thing and let it load did I happen to think -- wait a minute, I just clicked on a terrorist's website. What's to keep him from being a cyber terrorist. Then, today, I see this from Little Green Footballs http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?entry=22093_Ahmadinejads_Blog_is_Dangerous&only
Last night, after I clicked, I deleted all cookies, offline content, etc., I had McAfee updated and running at the time as well. Should I be concerned?
It took me about 3-4 tries to get my cookies deleted. It froze up my browser each time I tried deleting cookies and history. But, I finally got it all deleted.

I need your help to know if there is anything else I should do to protect my computer information.

Are you in Israel? I thought the Trojan horse was only for visitors to his site from an Israel ISP.

No, I am not. I saw that the original complaint was from Israel- but do Trojans discriminate like that? I wouldn't exactly think America is on his list of people he likes either.

I'd download and run SpyBot S&D, maybe Ad-Aware, too.

I would eat a piece of bacon and say "Allah ho Fubar" and reboot.

Okay. I had those installed on my desktop, but not my laptop. I'll try that.

Little Green Footballs is fine. They are just warning about Ahmadinejad's webblog.

There was a post on FR saying that the site was giving out viruses.

I had McAfee running. It didn't pick up anything. I think the virus was picked up in Israel. It looked like they had Norton.

I think the sensible thing to do is to go to FR, post a vanity, and ask for help.
