....what I don't understand is since they obviously know about the problem, then why don't they take the site/server down until it is fixed?

That my friend, is the $64 question, but if you scroll back a few pages you'll see that Media Temple has about 20% of their hosted sites spewing malware...how do you figure that one?

Thank you. I am running XP.

Do you have a link to the Lucid Puppy 5.1 Linux ISO. I will also attempt a search. I have the location of the file.

What do you mean when you say "Mount the hard drive?"

Download site:

Mounting a device makes it available for use. The OS will see it but it is not available for use (read or write) unless it is mounted. You'll see the drive listed at the bottom of the desktop but you need to mount it before you can do anything with it.

Others have posted that this virus may have loaded others so that one EXE may not be all of the story.

The host I suggested they use is spewing about a 0.05% malware rate.... instead they went a completely different direction and bought at MediaTemple.

And just as a comparison: Akamai's hosting:

Well, as I said to my father when I was a teenager...sometimes you have to learn from your own mistakes (as much as he wanted me to learn from his...which I eventually did--thanks, Dad!)
