i've been hit by ... i've been hit by ... win32:vitro win32:virut

yes a smooth criminal indeed.

I have been hit by this evil virus. Reminds me of something I got ages ago and couldn't remove and had to not trust anything in my old archives until a scanner can definitely detect it. Avast is the only thing that can detect post infection but not during running as it seems to still spread even with avast running! Better than nothing. It's now doing a scan and boy basically all the exe's are infected. I'm glad there's laws for virus creators, we just have to catch the b*****d.

So now I have to do the same thing. Install windows and download everything again. I'll prolly have to zip password my new backups and sum archive a list. Man dotnet, SP3 and SFU are huge files.
