HOLY CRAP! New VIRUS on my 'puter

All of a sudden Norton 360 started going berserker. I opened Task Manager and there were about 7 instances of
axnscemor.exe and caxmonwrs.exe running. I was ending the processes as fast as I could and Norton was quarantining them too.

I googled the processes and there were no hits. Norton has only had 5 reports of this virus.

Damn. The only sites I visited were a link that Bruce sent me :frown: and the website with the space picture. I did get a bogus email from someone but I didn't click the link, I trashed it.

I wonder if NOrton can tell me where I picked up the virus.

Now the computer is acting funny.
Gotta go.

Has your computer been cavorting with Spexx and HLJ's computers? Well?

not that I know of, but it did smell of chloroform today...

I never send a link I haven't negotiated safely.:headshake

I know it wasn't Bruce, I got a strange email from a family friend who never emails me and if she had it would have been some important news about one of her kids or grandkids. It asked me to enter my password for my email account (hello?) and it had a big crazy link that said Click me, so I deleted it.

I'm guessing opening the email was enough. Anyway, 'puter is all better now.

How did you fix it?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Norton just deleted all the files.

Norton!
