That's funny, as long as your home computer isn't hurt then it's ok

I would laugh, but I almost got fired when I got my company's whole network virused by the anna kournicova virus

go to this site if u think u have the virus its a program just made for this virus worm and can take it out easily!

Thank-you, all. I do not have this virus (yet) however at least now I have a floppy with everything (I hope) necessary to combat it should my system fall victim to it.

[DarkBlizzard]

What do u download to get this?

[Izagaia]

The virus itself?..

Just about damn-near anything from any site. P2P users are especially at risk because of the shear amount of data that normally flows to and from their systems in the form of the files they...uh... share.

At any rate, just browse through each page of this thread and you will get an idea of how it is spreading based upon what other users have already explained.
