...what exactly does the Sobig virus do? i did a virus scan a day ago or
so...came up with a few copies of some harmless spyware, which i
cleaned...and now today, i woke up to find the bootup screen on my computer,
but with a long number with dashes in between at the bottom...like a serial
# of sorts. anyways, i dont give it much thought and assume my computer
crashed during the night somehow. i reboot it...and nothing! the fan goes
on,....and it therefore sounds like it's running...but no form of actual
life can be detected from the processor!??? the monitor displays
nothing...in fact it doesnt even turn on from it's self-imposed standby
mode...which happens when nothing is coming from the processor of course.
any ideas?
