Ferrari Mailing List: Re: DNS NFC

[Larry T (l02turner]

Thanks Stephen - I saw it this morning and to expand on what you said just a little - a virus/malware/whatever was installed on thousands of computers - the malware would send people to a different DNS location where they'd be hit with adverts, XXX, and more malware hoping to extract personal info from peoples computers.   Evidently the government put a program in place that did not fix the problem but when a computer tried to go to the "bad" DNS it would be re-directed.   The govt program was costly and expires at midnight.    If you follow the link Stephen provided you;ll either see a green screen mening all is well (sort of) or a red screen meaning you have a problem.


Good luck -
LarryT

CNN has advised we check our computers to make sure they are not infected by going to the link above.

 

Monday computers that do not pass will not be able to connect to the internet.
