Phog Aidz

[BetterThanMost]

Just got it on my desktop. Anyone know how to get rid of it?

Re: Phog Aidz

Step one, avoid teh Phog. Entirely. Forever.

Step two, ask somebody smart.

Re: Phog Aidz

1. Boot into safe mode
2. Run malwarebytes off a flashdrive and clean it off.
3. Don't go to Phog.

Thanks 2001, doing that right now...

I got this twice about a month and two months ago on my laptop. And this is what I ran, but I didn't get it completely off either time. I ran both the quick scan and full scan. Hopefully it gets it all off the desktop, but if it doesn't are there any other suggestions?

Microsoft Security Essentials is also supposed to get rid of it.

Does ad block prevent this altogether?

Re: Phog Aidz

This really continues to amaze and astound me. What a bunch of self righteous dick heads. Does anyone know if they are losing numbers on the Phog Aidz site?

Me too. Full disclosure: I did visit three times to attempt to post, but since I'm under moderation (no posts until approved by Tom's brownshirts), none of my stuff was posted. My two computers did not acquire the Phog SuperAIDZ.

Good riddance to Phog.net and Scout.com.

Seems to for me, but you have to set it up before you even go there. If you don't, you'll likely get it.

Phog.net is a diseased-ridden whore.

This has worked for me.

Re: Phog Aidz

Why are people continuing to visit Scout when they damn well know it's infected? It amazes me that people are still complaining about getting teh aidz from Scout when they know in advance it's infected. Just amazing.

Re: Phog Aidz

I was over there one day last week and a bunch of the posters were bitching at people because they weren't coming onto the site with 50 different kinds of SuperAidz protection up and running before they showed up at the site. JFC, I didn't know that you had to wear a body condom to visit a college sports fan site.

Re: Phog Aidz

For me, I keep going over there mainly cause there's more traffic and mindnumbing reading

However, when Gem stated that she got it at work, I decided that was a risk I was going to quit taking while I'm at the office for now...I am amazed that the problem hasn't been fixed....seems ridiculous to me that it's still an issue
