← The Grand Upgrade

Haxxorzed!

Well, technically it was a virus, but you get the point. For those of you that have noticed that Four Island has been down for three days (I'm insulted if you didn't! :P), the reason is that we got a virus. Not me, no! Not any of my WONDERTASTIC LINUX COMPUTERS. NO, HOW DARE YOU SAY SUCH A THING? :P

No, it was a Windows XP computer. And the virus it had made the poor computer impetuously spam people. They complained and Optimum suspended our service until we could fix the problem. That was easy: flash the drive and reinstall Windows. There were a few teething problems with getting the correct drivers, but soon enough, our Internet was restored. After 3 days.

Anyway, FOUR ISLAND IS BACK UP NAO, YAY. :P Just in case anyone was worrying. :P Wow, this was a very short post, but it wasn't really meant to contain much substance anyway. :P

Wait... why did you have no antivirus?

The computer that had the infection had both McAfee and AdAware running, but neither of them apparently had the virus in its database.
