Warning New Zero Day Exploit For Windows

Charleston, SC(Zone 9a)

Just wanted to warn everyone. There is a new Zero Day Exploit for Windows in circulation via email and via the web. Officials are still trying to gain information about it. At this time no fix is available; therefore, the virus has not been widely publicized. The current recommendation is to be very careful about accessing email from unknown (and possibly even known) sources and be extra careful about where you go on the web until this is resolved.

As I understand it, among other things, the virus damages/removes files, causes strange "cursor" behavior, and causes PC's to go into an endless loop of rebooting. This is by no means all of its adverse effects, however. Again, for the time being, if your PC becomes infected with this new virus, the usual virus tools will not be able to remove it.
