SystemTool

There is a particularly nasty bit of malware doing the rounds called System Tool.  It runs at startup, pretends to scan your computer for malware and tells you that you have numerous Trojan Horses amd viruses. It will prompt you to pay for a full version of the program to remove supposedly found infections from your computer. It uses the same payment pages as Security Tool virus. Don't pay for this rogue program. It won't protect your computer. Instead, please remove System Tool 2011 from your…See More

Cyberthreats

People, please be vigilant, There are lots of new threats around at the moment, the latest being Carberp.  This replaces Zeus; this worm has become well-known and you've probably heard of it in the press.  If you're a malware writer, the less exposure you get the better, hence the creation of Carberp.  Carberp, like Zues, is designed to infect computers with malicious software with a view to steal financial details.  However, Carberp is nastier than Zues:It resides in system memory, it can…See More

Hi Tom. Sam Desforges suggested I go along to the event to network with some local people (we are neighbours). Thanks for the welcome, have you found WKN useful so far? Hopefully see you at one of the events some time.
