Guest guest Posted April 27, 2002 Report Share Posted April 27, 2002 Can you explain to me how this JS/Exploit Back CSS virus works? I know it is activated by using the back button. It was a first for me and I was really upset with McAfee that it didn't catch. Is that being a little too naive on my part or is that where I screwed up by not keeping my firewall in place. >From what I gathered it just comes from web sites and I just happened to look at one that was infected so when I hit my back button it set into those files. I did go through and clean out cookies yesterday also besides cleaning out my 10 temporary flies where it was attached. Something I should do more often, I'm sure. I couldn't believe how many were there for things I don't use anymore and sites I had looked at maybe one time. What is your opinion my noble computer buddy. I tried to pull my brother's chain for help but I guess the Good Lord must have him busy redesigning the computer set-up for the Pearly Gates right now. No Luck, my long distance call wouldn't reach quite far enough either!! Since a big part of his work was security, I know he would have given me an earful and kidded me about not running on Linux like he always tried to get me to do.
