Caution alert for 'Astounding video' below

dharney · 14-Oct-2004, 14:30

I followed the link to look at the video below and my PC (well secured corporate PC) detected a trojan trying to infect it. The message alert suggested that the trojan may be trying to capture keystrokes.

Word of warning

Just noticed that a number of things were going on on my PC at the time so it may be a false alert but take care in any case.

Snopes is a very well known website - sounds like your machine is already infected...
