a friend of mine is running os9 on her work puter.
she got a virus the other day.
she doesnt get on the net there... hasnt been on for abouta month and a half... no email... nothing external hooked up to it, no disk, no floppy, no network.. NOTHING... just the mac and her.
i was like "what the hell"
she still got a virus.
she says as follows:
" it made all my programs fail and crash and then it wouldnt open them.. it even crashed norton. It installed a lost and found folder on my harddrive and some funky thing in the prefs folder that started with the word panic and was followed by alot of code. It f**ked up everything, but i deleted those files and disk doctored the computer and its working fine again "
any clue what this was guys? i just want to know... for future note.
