Blackadder, I am the 'winker' who moved the thread to the Computer forum. Same place this one is going. It might be news but it isn't aviation.
I suggest you get a an Apple Mac as they don't suffer from these worm type viruses.
Just because something is 'News' doesn't automatically mean that it belongs on this forum. It's about time people realised that you don't open attachments unless you ordered them.
Mind you, because so many people are like sheep and follow the rest by buying 'MS Windows' based computers you can always expect this kind of problem to occur. Anything that uses Microsoft software is open to easy attack and is likely to give you grief at some time or another.
If you don't like MacOS then go for Linux.
