    Hi all
    Any one know anything about that DNS Virus?
    Just got this from our local news station.
    They had a guy from Symantec on and he told them to test your computer by going to: www.DNS-OK.us
    If the Logo turns green you are free of the virus, if it turns red you have a problem.
    My computers are fine. Just wanted to give every one a heads-up.

    This has been around now for quite a while. I saw on the news tonight that they think that less then 250,000 people in the USA will be affected. That is down from something like 2 + million people a couple of months ago.

    I saw the story on Google>News earlier today and went to the site SVEN mentions above, got the green reply (my system is clear). The site was pretty busy, but persistence paid off.
