Title: Anyone got a virus from fox poker club website? Post by: madlondoner on September 17, 2012, 03:54:48 AM I think I have got a hideous virus from their website. I opened it up to check the schedule and my computer went mental. I had open pokerstars.tv and Facebook too but not convinced they could be the cause. Is a nightmare. Ive got Sophos but it walked straight thought it. :(

What browser are you using, and did you execute a file, and you definitely know it's from their website? Title: Re: Anyone got a virus from fox poker club website?

If you've not updated recently, probably worth doing. Title: Re: Anyone got a virus from fox poker club website?
