Allright, I'm just freaked out here! He's the story:

I turned my computer on this morning at like 5 A.M. (3 hours ago)

I didn't do anything but check my email and CF, plus a couple other regular sites on my favorites. Avast! detected a virus, which I moved to the chest as usual.

I started a video converter for a large file, which I've been running for about 20-30 minutes.

Then all of a sudden, my speakers pop on (no media player or any other sign other than the actual sound), and this guy starts yelling:

here's basically what he said:
"Hey, I'm here in New York! It's ten o'clock and I'm sick and tired of you calling me, I can't stand it anymore! I don't care if your parents neglected you during your childhood, or you friends were mean, stop calling me! I'm coming down there next week, and I'm going to find you, and get you and put an end to all this, just -" *voice stops*

Ok, I know this isn't reffering to me or anyone else in the house, but I don't know what the hell it is! I'm concerned it's a virus or something.
I don't know what to do next, I'm just freaked out

That has to be one of those retarded viruses, they are shipping out crap like that all the time. Can you imagine how bad it would freak out anyone else?

Verve · 05-01-2007, 01:28 PM

Yeah, I sorta knew what it was right away, so I just clicked the Zonealarm internet lock, and checked task manager for processes. Yes, there was a weird one there, and I ended it.

What should I do? I think I'll run a boot scan with Avast in a little bit.

That's got to be a little freaky...

Still, nothing much to worry about.

Verve · 05-01-2007, 01:45 PM

Really? I figured that this might be the tip of the iceberg, so to speak. So this is more of a prank virus than an actual threat?

funky

i remember when my soundcard used to pick up police transmissions if there was a patrol car parked nearby, used to get some quite interesting tals out of that

OT: You think that's bad, I used to have a wireless TV transmitter for my room and it could pick up the marquee hire centre's CCTV from next door!
