Howdy everyone [=)]
I've been away for a while. My best friend and his fiance just bought a house and offered myself and my girlfriend a place to live (housing in ND is horrible right now). We've been spending the past few weeks painting the house, moving furniture, all sorts of moving adventures! All four of us have different work schedules, so a day or night where all four of us are available to help is very rare.That being said, we're still without internet. We got a cable modem hooked up just a few days ago, but it went out later that same night and they have to send a tech to fix or replace it.Today is a slow day at work. I only have three computers to work on, and two of them are nearly finished. The third, however, is a bit of a doozy. I never thought I'd actually get to work on one, but I have a system here with the infamous "Here You Have" Virus or perhaps some variation. I can tell you first hand, this is a bitch to fix. There's no real way to test whether it is fixed without accessing the internet, which would compromise my work place's security. I'm going to have to isolate the machine or put up a firewall on my switch.Here's some more information on the virus if you like that kind of info: http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/virus-mail-spreads-online/story?id=11596433In any case, how is everyone today?Infinity's Here - 'Here You Have' virus and other such junk

Hum, that article claims that opening a folder containing the virus triggers it. That would indicate a zero-day flaw in Explorer itself, something very rare. This warrants some research…
