Getting Your Start Because You Got Hacked

Back about 15 years agoThought it would be cool to download a new "free"
screen saver. Downloaded it. I think it was actually called bugs. I thought
cool, bugs running all over the screen, what a cool screen saver. After
installing I thought I would run it. Next thing you know bugs are eating my
screen...it was a nice virus. Lesson number one...use AV on machine.
