Trojan virus hitting laptops
Thursday 12th August at 12:14 pm by Sam Francis
Yesterday, a laptop came into us acting funny on the web. We immediately suspected a virus and our fears were confirmed after a full scan. The detected Trojan virus had duplicated itself many times to cause a meltdown. The operating system had to be reinstalled from scratch as there was not an affective anti virus application installed. The virus had come from the customer’s smartphone!
If you sync your Smartphone with your laptop, you can guarantee a effortless way of infecting your laptop with a deadly and possibly costly virus. The best advice we can offer right now as it’s a new approach for virus menaces is to make sure you are using an up to date virus application such as Norton or AVG. It won’t stop the virus hitting your laptop but it may stop your laptop becoming infected. We doubt freeware will help you avoid untold damage so go and buy such a product and get it loaded asap!
