| 261605 | 2004-08-14 05:11:00 | Is www.XpVirusClean.com genuine? I keep getting a pop-up message from them to say I'm infected. I know I had something that re-started computer when I ran both AVG & Norton. Several system recoverys later I can now complete AVG and have no virus message. Thanks in advance Jock PS have just dialled up to post this and got the same message from www.VirusWash.net |

| 261607 | 2004-08-14 06:00:00 | Its Adware probably getting in via Windows Messenger service. Visit www.grc.com and "shoot the messenger" to stop it. Its just advertising I believe, and does not actually imply that you are infected. |
