No, I'm a lazy git.  Since when were you Machine, Yot?  Did I miss something?

I'm just sporting the CR2 sig that some have made when they open up the QA Server.  It's mainly just for the mxo forums, but I like the design and thought I'd use it here for a bit.  No worries mate, I'm still Zion.

What does CR2.0 stand for. Combat Revision 2.0, so doesn't that make this Combat 3.0, since Revision means that they already "revised" it once before. Shouldn't it be C2.0 or CR or CU (Combat Upgrade)?

Tbone, try this

Tbone, one thing that came to mind that you might want to try:

    1. Open Notepad
    2. Using Notepad, open the file c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
    3. Make sure that every single line starts with the # character. The only line that shouldn't start with the # character should be the following line:
Code: [Select]
127.0.0.1       localhost
Any other line that doesn't start with the # character should be deleted. Post those lines here so we can take a look at them.
4. Save the file.[/list]

That's how the virus was able to change the ebay page to his page. Everyone should try the steps above to make sure they're not being hacked.

Seriously guys, they did a lot of work on this crap.  I have a link to the login for my online bank - and it's one of the ones that gets spoofed LEAST - and they managed to redirect to a page where I very nearly gave out my login details and my telephone banking password.  Check yourselves out!!

localhost was the only one listed. I think I've gotten rid of the virus.
