Default Virus attack

A virus called BackDoor.Graybird attacked my PC whilst I was on line to your forum. I suppose it could have come from anywhere or been dormant in the background from another visit to the internet. I just thought I would mention it.
My protection software denied it access thankfully.

It's more than likely hitting you from another website. The only thing RCU uses are cookies to remember your login.

I'm sure you are correct, thanks for your response in any case. I work for a major US corporation. This all happened before, a month ago.
It took 8 hours of IT time to fix the problem. It's a modern day *****.
