My boss's computer was infected with the w32.beagle.aq@mm!zip
virus, and various bits of spyware and adware such as powerscan,
conscorr.exe, bxxs5.dll (and much more).
This seemingly happened while he was browsing a message board
called IDCC on the www.investorshub.com website.
He says that he did not download anything - how could this infection
have happened? How can it be prevented in future?
Note: he was running Norton antivirus software.
Thanks!
