Beware of False Virus Notification Pop Up Screen

We at Oasis Technology would like to wish you the best that 2010 has to offer.

 

We all know that the economic situation has had a long and lingering negative effect on everyone -- hopefully the worst of times are now behind us.

 

On a short note, we want to provide you with one important tip with regard to computer VIRUSES.

BEWARE -- several bad viruses are spreading rapidly.

 

Be aware that the people who write viruses have found another way to get around anti-virus software.  What they do is pop-up an official looking screen when you chance upon an infected website.

 

The screen says something like ''ALERT!!!! -- A VIRUS HAS BEEN FOUND ON YOUR COMPUTER !!!!!!! -- DO YOU WANT TO CLEAN IT?''

 

Of course, people usually panic and press ''YES'' – which is the WRONG thing to do. This action loads fifty or a even hundred viruses onto your computer, making your computer unusable. 

If you do see this screen, just CLOSE THE INTERNET and don't click on any buttons!  If you can, immediately reboot your computer!  Also inform all those in your company as well as your IT support staff.

 

But….IF YOU GET THIS VIRUS AND YOU ARE STUCK, GIVE US A CALL!  We can help!
