VIRUS ALERT ON BITCOMET BLOGS
Size: Large, Medium, Small Mon Apr 14, 08 01:28 AM | Category: All

There is a virus by the name of JS/Downloader agent present in the bitcomet blogs. I thought it was only me who was having this problem but then I read the post by Christara and knew that it was being experienced by other users as well.

Basically this virus is a malware and opens unwanted popups when we are on this site, but I had my comp screwed up because I thought my AV program had removed it, but it was lurking in the background and finally I had to have my drives formatted.

Even Google search is warning about the blog.bitcomet.com with a warning that it is an unsafe site. Now we have to trust Google, because before it had not given such warnings.

I dont know what the fellows running the bitcomet site doing about it, if they dont do anything soon this site will have to shut down, much to the dismay of users like us and it by chance it enters the main bitcomet program then the bitcomet community will be doomed.

 

I would suggest that anyone having problems like this should write in the blogs so that it is brought to the notice of all the bloggers.

What did you do when it opens unwanted popups when we are on this site?

I want to know in what case the virus will appear.

The only way oyou would have gotten this virus is by clicking on a link and when it ask for you to download it, or adding a script to your explorer to what they would say play some kind of content on you computer would be the only way to get it. So what have you clicked on in the last few days. But just for reference it's not BitComets Fault.

If you download and dont scan the file b4 you open it, or start a script, are active x control without first looking at what it could be your heading down a path to get your Hard Drive formatted. Always look before you leap
