YouTube Virus Warning!

I've just learned that there is a virus attached to a number of videos up on YouTube right now, including the one I posted yesterday. I am removing the video immediately and apologise for any harm this may have done.

For those curious, here's a post about the virus from SuperGeekBlog:

From CrunchGear moments ago, reports of a new virus are coming out just this morning. The virus seems to imbed a URL redirect to a phishing site.

The site apparently installs Antivirus 2009, which is malware. We’ll pull our most recent YouTube embeds, but be careful because this one appears to have just broken out today. If you find yourself being automatically redirected or experience other weird pop-ups, especially for something called Antivirus 2009, don’t click on anything.

Keep an eye out for more info/patches/etc on this.

The original site and text are: http://www.supergeekblog.com/2008/12/youtube-virus-actnsswift/

Again, apologies if this has caused problems for your machine.

More Texas!

So, Leigh and I will be winging our way to Arlington Texas for the Wizard World Comic Con this Thursday. We are looking forward to having a marvelous, ninja-free time.

However, in other news, I am saddened to announce that after their failed attempt on me, the ninjas went after Leigh's computer. His work machine was down for several days with a virus and he was unable to complete this Tuesday's page.

Yes - No New Page On Tuesday :(

If he can, he'll get a sketch or something up, but currently, he's doing a lot of reinstalling and swearing.

Look for the usual blogging (not on Friday though, as I'll be in Texas) throughout the week.

Cheers,
-Jason
