I just heard on xbox live there is a major virus hiting computers. I dont know what it dose but i got on with my clan and we always play together in the same 4 rooms and all have three usually. BUT now all of us are down to 1 star except the server.

So go on live and check how your doing with people you normaly play with & check your stars they still indicate how your computer is running.


[color=red] UPDATE: Now my brother just told me somone keeps calling him from a computer on his cell and it wont let him awnser it [/color]

No I meant on this board if you had two diff accounts here because a similair thing is going on with another person with the cell phone thing and it is possible that the virus is the new version of MyDoom that I just saw on the news that slows down internet and websites.

Ok are you doing a scan right now? And then download Spybot S&D It could be adware or spyware doing this also. Go to google and type in Spybot S&D and download it from the link that has the address of security.kolla or something like that.

lol Oh and if the problem persists do this... If you have a cable connection or DSL unplug it from the comp itself and pull the power plug from it. Then shut off the computer you may need to call a Techy.

Oh and if you dont believe me heres a dit bit from the mag I have http://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,116456,pg,4,00.a sp look down a bit and look at all of the blue text you will see Spybot there and www.safer-networking.com and security.kolla are the same its just that security kolla brings you to the same spot but with a diff name like a bunch of sites do including RvB
