This is not good news for those infected, and is sure to be another moneyspinner for those behind with and anticipate many rogue apps to appear as 'cures' Enjoy the Easter weekend, mine will be busy sorting out infected machines I think, so much for repotting my Bonsai's :) Hi Frank,

Enjoy the Easter weekend, mine will be busy sorting out infected machines I think, so much for repotting my Bonsai’s :)
