Micron Associates for social media addicts to check the computer for the increasing malware

WASHINGTON-Internet providers have plans to help their customers Monday and others are stiffened because thousands of calls to helplines around the country whose computers are infected with malicious software over a year ago faced the possibility of not being able to get online.
Internet users scan their Twitter feeds or Facebook accounts Sunday were encouraged to add a faster Click to check their computer for malware.
Some providers can put technical solutions in place that the server problem that some computers could become after midnight Sunday will correct. They do it, the Internet will work, but the malware continues on victims computers and future problems, could provide DeGrasso said Tom, an FBI supervisory special agent.
Micron Associates said that the FBI planned closure of the web servers set up as a temporary safety net to keep infected computers online for the past eight months. The Agency obtained the injunction to keep the servers running smoothly, and was not renewed.
The problem began when international hackers ran a scam online advertising for feeding control of more than 570,000 infected computers around the world. When the FBI went too take of the hackers late last year, realized agents that if they the malignant servers that be used to check the computers disabled, all victims their Internet service lose would.
In a highly unusual move, the FBI set up the safety net. The agency brought in a private company two clean Internet servers to take over for the malicious servers so that people do not suddenly lose their Internet would be installed.
The FBI arranged for a private company to run a website - http://www.dcwg.org - as a place where computer users can go and see if their computer watertje septic and find links to other computer security business sites where they could find solutions to the problem.
From the beginning, most victims did not even know that their computers were infected, although malicious software probably has delayed their web browsing and off their antivirus software, making their machines vulnerable to other problems.
Many computer users do not understand the complex machines they use every day to e-mail, shopping, and cruise information. The cyber world of viruses, malware, bank fraud and Internet scams is often distant and confusing, and warning messages can go unnoticed or ignored.

Blogs and other internet forums are riddled with bookings warning from the Government using the malware as a trick to infringement on American citizens computers. This is a free FBI and other cyber security experts who are familiar with the malware quickly condemn as ludicrous.
The Internet is still, inundated with conspiracy theories.
There is an underlying feeling that this is much ado about nothing, as the approach of 2000 will be. The transition to the year presented technical problems and fears that some computers would stop working because they were not set for the date change. Ultimately, there were very few problems.
Given the millions of Internet users across the country, several thousand is no big deal unless you're one of them.
Rep. Jim Langevin, DR.I., and co-founder of the Congressional caucus cybersecurity, said computer users have a responsibility to exercise prudent and make sure their computers are not infected or is hijacked by criminals.
FBI officials have been tracking the number of computers they still believe may be infected by the malware. As of Wednesday, there were approximately 45,600 in the U.S. - nearly 20,000 less than a week ago. The total is about 250,000 infected worldwide. The songs are fallen steadily, and recent efforts by Internet-providers can restrict the problems on Mondays.
