thank you for sharing!

Thanks for the info Tommy, don't use Internet Explorer thank goodness! :)

The article says it attacked older versions of IE. Microsoft never has done a good job of maintaining older versions of its software.

Thanks for the tip.

Cheers Tommy. I do all my work on a Chromebook now. It was cheap & it's much safer!

Thanks for the heads up Tommy - glad I'm not using that browser any more!

Thanks for the heads-up, Tommy

Wow, ive been lucky so far. Updating browser to google chrome thanks Tommy

Thanks Tommy, appreciate your post. Sometimes I do wonder how far this will go. These things are just another reason for some governments to limit online access and you can't almost argue with them anymore.
My husband and I use Viper internet security, so far everything is in the green.

Thanks Tommy. I had something similar happen to my laptop about a year ago now. It claimed I had viewed child porn and demanded money to remove the message and not report me to the RCMP. Fortunately my mouse and keyboard still worked and I was able to reboot and find out how to get rid of it. Not as nasty as the one you referenced but quite scary at the time. Glyn.

Wauw thanks for sharing this!
