Re: Complete Newbie to this
That AntivirusXP 2009 will wreak havoc with your linux system too. It happened to me. I didn't get any of the nasty stuff. All I got was the annoying pop-ups telling me that my windows machine was infected and that the only way to fix it was to install and run the stuff that infected the machine in the first place.
For what it's worth, a computer shop told me that AntivirusXP 2009 originates in the middle east and for those that buy the software with a credit card may as well kiss that account goodbye. You have just funded terrorism. Also, the program has many other names. Most are names of legitimate windows programs followed by the "XP" and/or the current year. I don't know if this is, even remotely, true.
I had to re-write my linux machine to get rid of it.
Some computers are like Slinkys. Not really much good for anything but they bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs.
Don't be discouraged! Remember, an amateur built the Ark. Experts built the Titanic.
