no, it's a common Windows message. Just click OK as always.

Speaking of viruses, that blackra1n program (http://tinyurl.com/yke6bnt) for iPhone or whatever, had 2 trojans on it. Check it out:
Code: Select all
Status: Quarantined   (events: 2)   
5/31/2010 1:03:22 AM   Quarantined   virus HEUR:Trojan.Win32.Generic   C:\Documents and Settings\******\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows\SysWOW64\winssh32.rom   High   
5/31/2010 1:03:22 AM   Quarantined   virus HEUR:Trojan.Win32.Generic   C:\Documents and Settings\******\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Windows\SysWOW64\winbtn32.rom   High   

I have Kaspersky and this was what happened when I ran the program. It installed this into the SysWOW64 folder. What it installed was 2 .rom files. "winssh32.rom and "winbtn32.rom".

The critical level was High.

Ya I'm guessing it was a prank on my XP computer. It has Mcafee so I guess if it was a virus it would already locked it down like it always does.

Technically, SWINE FLU is right. Self-destructing the computer prevents unauthorized access. So they cannot take your personal files.

Technically, SWINE FLU is not right because then you can't play. And I found out it was a prank. SWINE FLU's just being a retard.

Ah. So you would rather play games on a computer that renders video games useless? Not to also mention that you can barely launch the game itself since unauthorized access is basically controlling what you do...
