Could This Be the ‘Fawkes Virus’?

@ chabbo
I’m quaking in my boots awaiting this one (not really, I don’t use facebook).
e.g. I never worry about stuff I have little or no control over, life is too short. So worrying about new malware FUD falls into that category.

Trust in avast and take pro-active precautions, I run internet facing applications, browsers, emails, etc. under DropMyRights (limits potential for harm, XP only). I also use firefox with NoScript and RequestPolicy add-ons, which limits the potential for script attacks/driveby downloads/installations, etc.

If all else fails I have a robust backup and recovery strategy (hard disk drive imaging software).

You have a very long signature block, a shame you don’t tell us anything about your system in it.
