| 1376380 | 2014-06-03 04:31:00 | www.nzherald.co.nz Computer users have been warned to take urgent action to protect themselves from a global cyber virus pandemic. Gameover Zeus, which first appeared in September 2011, stole bank information and other confidential details from victims. Computer users must install anti-virus software and update their operating systems to the latest versions to stop it regaining its hold, computer experts said. How it works The software installs itself on a computer when the victim clicks on a link in an unsolicited email or via a website. It then sends out more emails to lure further victims, without the knowledge of the computer users, and spreads quickly across the internet. ------------------ So AV won't help will it. Common sense might. Don't click any dodgy links, don't read the suspect email. |
