So I was over on my old computer today looking through files, trying to see if there was anything I missed to load onto Yggdrasil Mark I. While I’m there, I open Internet Explorer to check some of my local files. The thing is, whenever I try to go to any file within Internet Explorer, all of a sudden I get deluged by hundreds of browser windows, all of which are trying to access a page on my bank’s Website. (It can’t get to them because the modem isn’t hooked up.)
I’m not sure what’s behind this, but if my suspicions are correct, this is the first time I have ever had a virus infect a computer of mine. Either that, or that ActiveX control the bank had me download when I signed up for online banking is really fucked up. Good thing I refuse to download it onto Yggdrasil Mark I.
