Question Has your Anti virus program been catching anything lately?

Has anyone's Internet security or Anti virus programs been getting things caught during the holiday vacation time???

Mine has been catching a lot - mainly a rootkit - Win32.TDSS. cki {and other variations of the last letters}
plus a few other things... seems like just since holiday vacation started...

I changed my Zone Alarm settings to scan every day now.

And also use manual scans with other progrmas for spyware and viruses just to make sure nothing is sneaking on to my puter...

Not this vacation Jo, but I must admit that most vacations I get a whole heap of viruses, trojans and Spam stuff coming through!

I have McAfee, and it hasn't found any bugs *knock on wood*... since the university students went on vacation last September.

Even my Spyware remover has had a long rest!

Hopefully you'll not have any more problems.
