Red face Continental Triple computer failure

Flying the night Atlantic Sat 28 July overheard on 123.45 Continental 40 and 44 talking about losing three computers, one said that they had been scanned by something and were frantically trying to re boot the conputers, it went quiet for a while then they spoke again, one of them seemed to have got them back the other one had got one back, at this stage we were going out of range, never heard anything more. Paxing back on Continental asked the ground crew if they could tell me what went wrong, no answers mind you they were 767 guys. Can anyone over there shed any light on this as triple computer failures on two Continental jets at the same time seems a little scarry to me. And no FE to buy drinks either, bring back the 3 crew jet!!!!
Cheers
Fergi
