Damned Viri...
Am I the only one experiencing absolutely horrific 'Net and Email function because of the latest frigging virus?
I kind of liked NBN's notion in another thread. Let's catch these bastards, torture them and have them subjected to capital punishment. That ought to put a stop to this crap. Sheesh.

Haven't noticed much at home. At work however, everything is screwed up while they purge this shit.

My first encounter with the concept of a computer virus was in 1987 or maybe 1988. From that time until last week I have received, in various forms, maybe 6 or 7 viruses sent to me personally. (I'm not counting what I cleaned off other people's computers at work.)
This week I've gotten at least 20. My mail server at work has gotten 1200 since Tuesday morniing. (They've all been caught & stripped by the virus scanner, but it's still a pain.) |

I read that's exactly what they're doing.

Though my home network is not infected, for the past few days, my Internet connection has been slower than a sumo wrestler going up a greased pole. The ISP's servers must be getting pretty hammered by MyDoom.
