As far as I am aware a script was placed on the CNV site which allowed access to my computer via Internet Explorer.
I am no expert but from my experiences of the site there are several messages which are tagged with code (Not the PGP in the EOM messages).
I first had a problem around the 11th of January - same date as money was taken.
Someone hacked the CNV site and replaced a graphic with an image of a static clock. (This has been covered in part 1 fo this forum) I had no problem until I clicked on the post link. I noted that some of the links and messages contained the same coded jargon as that produced by the doom virus. I could be wrong but it appears that the message was tagged with an active script, in some way, to the image set on the hacked page.

Of course the person or persons involved could have gained access prior to the message i'm concerned about being placed but I doubt it.

'mama told you not to steal' contained a warning which also included the words 'prepare for thy doom' there was also a threat of some interior decorating and that they hoped we would all have fun reformatting our hard drives. This was clearly directed at anyone using the site.

If you have found any files on your computer tagged with arabic or symbols of it's type - you have been hacked.
I discovered a host of nasties in my language settings for example.

Where would I look on my computer to check if I've been infected or infiltrated? Computer illiterate here! I can point, click and google but that's about all.

Be careful, molly162. I hope you have all the software and hardware you need to stay protected now.

Yes I found files with Arabic names on my C drive route. They had not . extension and had no size, but they were there. I have no idea what they did.
