Virus on MPC??

yo peeps!

i just connected my mpc the very first time with my computer
and avira antivir just found 2 viruses...

the names are VBS/Sasan.98 and VBS/Small.NAA

the mpc is fresh outta box and has viruses on it?

somebody of you ever had such a problem and what should i do now?

peace

"Yo peeps" is inexcusable.


What AV are you using? Some of them are much more prone to false positives.
And what happened when you tried to remove them?
It sure would be nice if thats all it took to solve the bugs.

Are you sure this just isn't on your computer?
I don't think a VBS virus would work on an MPC...

'sup party-ppl?

(better? )

here is what i did: i checked the exact location of the viruses twice and then deleted them.
checked the mpc again and they are gone.

the cf card is the one that came with the mpc...

heres my theory: i had some virus ish going on on my computer and they copied something on the mpc as it is an mass storage device for the computer. the virus program detected this event and alerted me.

no EFX on the computer, the cf card or the mpc to notice yet.

peace (peeps)

ps.: i think i'ma keep that peeps thing...

They are cute.
And I think they last forever like a twinkie.

Yeah, I was thinking about it. If it was a genuine virus it had to be something that jumped from a pc to the cf. But it wouldn't do anything to a MPC any more than it would to a mac because it wasn't written for it.

I agree

ooohhh a virus written for an mpc. i never thought obout that. now that sounds fun. maybe i can make the malscript force an unlock on all jjos versions........................................................................................................






im probably going to get hated on for saying that. a pc virus will do nothing to an mpc by the way. i virus is just a script that is written to perform a specific task. and to my knowledge there is no script written for the mpc platform

we got that allready.. thx anyway.

Come on guys. Who would make a virus for the mpc???
