Danger! Virus Alert! Danger!

Very bad virus. You know how I was not here much this week? I was getting rid of it on a customers' computer. I tried to avoid a clean install but I ended up having to. I just found this today on another computer forum.

Take time to read this one it's an ugly one!

Oh great! Yet another thing to worry about. I saw this on the news sometime earlier. I don't use P2P often, and I haven't used it in weeks. Plus, Mozilla Mail is supposed to be safer than Outlook or Outlook Express.

I can only hope.

I posted an alert on my business site. I rather "loose" a customer because they fixed it themselves than spend all that time fixing that particular virus.

Besides, when you can sell OC12 Cisco routers for only $75 000 I don't care about labour money that much.

Now that's how I wish every businessperson thought.

If people would not think 40 bucks flat is too expensive and that I would charge per hour, then, maybe that would change.

A typical IT tech would of made a few hundred bucks on that one! She got quite a deal! I might be changing my charging system though. Start small, go big.

I really want to sell one of those OC12 routers though.

I'd make a few thousand bucks of profit of that.

I should give my isp a deal on it so they let me run a server.

Run a server off the newly installed router that is.
