I guess I have to thank them. Is it free?

**szlamany** · Jul 7th, 2012, 07:58 AM

It is free - it is safe.

It does not load anything on your machine.

It only goes to a location on the web that shows a green image if you are in the clear - no DNS virus issues...

**szlamany** · Jul 7th, 2012, 08:02 AM

The link in the OP is USA only

This is the home page...

www.dcwg.org

but use this one - it shows all the servers you can select worldwide

I am Green. Or was it greenish yellow ? I was recently playing with the color settings and is all messed up now

What does Yellow color stands for ? - "Just wait, you will get infected soon" ?

**ThEiMp** · Jul 7th, 2012, 06:42 PM

Green is good, Yellow is loading and then Red is very dangerous. I believe...

**baja_yu** · Jul 8th, 2012, 02:34 PM

So what's going to happen on monday?

**szlamany** · Jul 8th, 2012, 02:51 PM

Those that are infected will be directed towards bogus dns servers - thus living in their own little web world apart from the non-infected...

I believe...

**ThEiMp** · Jul 8th, 2012, 07:08 PM

Well it's Monday = Me.Perth = Time...

I heard of the malware and wasn't sure at first if the site was legit. Are Macs affected?

**Nightwalker83** · Jul 9th, 2012, 01:00 AM

Should this thread be moved to General PC since it is actually useful rather than the usual stuff we talk about in Chit Chat? I scanned my laptop a few days ago and it was/is DNS Changer free. I will scan my pc after we have replaced the power supply and I'm able to use it again.

Well my guess as a computer programmer, I think that it is only centralised to the IBM PC and compatiable computers that are running a Windows 32-Bit based operating system...

I don't think that it exists, cause none of the machines we were sent to, had it. Also it's not a very strong virus, instead of the ciypher source code that existed or was talked about. Yes, I was given a SPAM link, which I removed from my machine totally. The known link to the source code. That must have been a troll, in deed doing that part of the hype of things, happening afew days, before...

**akhileshbc** · Jul 9th, 2012, 10:47 PM

It's Tuesday here, so anything happened to your PCs yesterday ?

**ThEiMp** · Jul 10th, 2012, 06:20 PM

No way, nothing happened. That means that it could have been real or not, not sure on that fact man??? So now it's over, I am going to mark this thread resolved...

I agree, I think that this belongs in General PC. I will get it moved.

Thanks for the report.

you dont have to have malware installed for this problem. If your dns settings have been changed, removing malware won't fix them. My brother got our system infected once and i had to have spybot fix the dns settings.

**ThEiMp** · Jul 16th, 2012, 12:34 AM

Yes, there is a way to fix up the following DNS settings, by using a third party application program package, but then there is the one that I always do and then that is considered the best one by my means and that is the writing down the DNS settings, and then getting your ISP to remove the blocking factors. Thus you can then be able to use the ISP to help repatch them into the computer system machine, as per just getting them to refresh the DNS settings. I was also infected by a virus, which was called: Flame. I don't think that many people have heard of it, but then it was only for a government type of job, that we were going to do for our country, here in the great sun baked land of OZ...

Spybot removes malware though?

it does but it is also capable of repairing some sytem problems caused by malware, such as hijacked dns settings, modified hosts file, etc. It also contains an "innoculate" function that blocks (using the same hosts file) many known malware pages and tracker sites.

**Nightwalker83** · Jul 16th, 2012, 07:01 PM

Ah ok! I was unaware it did all that.

**ThEiMp** · Jul 16th, 2012, 07:39 PM

Same here...

**gep13** · Jul 17th, 2012, 12:33 AM

Another useful application is SpywareBlaster, don't know if you guys have heard of it. Sounds like it does something similar to the SpyBot inoculate function, where is sets up a blacklist of known sites that are virus/phishing/malware etc, and prevents your computer from accessing them.

**ThEiMp** · Jul 17th, 2012, 01:47 AM

Cool, what's the Website's address???

**gep13** · Jul 17th, 2012, 02:00 AM

This is them:

http://www.brightfort.com/spywareblaster.html

There is a paid for version that does auto-updating, but there is a free one. It just means that you have to do the updating yourself.

These are the applications that I use:

**ThEiMp** · Jul 17th, 2012, 12:37 PM

Is there one for x86 32-Bit Windows XP SP3??? I can't see one. But then you are only talking about Windows 7.00, which is the x64 version, of the product. Can you please help direct me to the version of the product, that is right for me???

**gep13** · Jul 17th, 2012, 01:24 PM

Hello,

If you check this page:

http://www.brightfort.com/spywareblaster.html#FAQ

On the right hand side you will see that Windows XP is supported.

Have you tried the download?

Gary

**ThEiMp** · Jul 17th, 2012, 07:36 PM

Well I tried looking at it, but then didn't really have a good look, but now will...

!! Thanks for the Input$ !!

**gep13** · Jul 18th, 2012, 12:42 AM

Not a problem at all, happy to help!

Hope you like it.
