Check Your Computer -- FBI Warning






Check out this report from the Federal Bureau of Investigation...
 
"Six Estonian nationals have been arrested and charged with running a sophisticated Internet fraud ring that infected millions of computers worldwide with a virus and enabled the thieves to manipulate the multi-billion-dollar Internet advertising industry. Users of infected machines were unaware that their computers had been compromised—or that the malicious software rendered their machines vulnerable to a host of other viruses."
 
Read more about this on the FBI website at this link:

Check you computer to see if it is infected by clicking on the link in this FBI table for your country:
https://forms.fbi.gov/check-to-see-if-your-computer-is-using-rogue-DNS

For those in the United States, here is the link:
http://www.dns-ok.us/

When you go to the site, you will see a graphic image. If your image comes up with a green background, your computer is recognizing DNS IP Addresses correctly, if the background is red...you need to clean your computer.
Check and clean your computer by Monday, 9 July which is the day that the virus activates if your system is infected.

Just trying to get the word out.
