Concern about FFchat security

[Resha]

Yep...I got this spybot worm thingy- I'm not sure of the name coz I don't have it on this computer, but once I get onto my laptop I'll try and look it up! - and this worm dude gave off a Trojan to hide itself. It was trojancachecachet or something like that but like I said, I can't remember.

And when I looked up this worm on Norton's website, it said that it spreads through IRC and Kazaa; I don't use Kazaa so it means it must have come from FFChat. I don't download music and stuff, and I only go on FFChat....so? I'm pretty sure BoB knows something about it too.

Even if you got infected over FFChat, it says absolutely nothing about FFChat's own security - you're getting infected from someone connected to FFChat It's like saying your router or modem is insecure because the trojan happenned to pass through it on it's way to your PC

Well I don't know much about this stuff. But...let me just look at what symantec.com has to say about the worm again, and maybe I can be clearer about the problem! It was a W32.something, if my memory isn't totally blown.

They say that if you sit on a public toilet in #eoff, you can get pregnant! :O

About 50 billion of the worms on there have names starting with W32

I noticed! xD That's why I have no idea which one it. *will look it up...eventually*
