Q. What does the virus do?
Answer
According to an analyst form Computer Associates, the trojan, called Mocmex, is able to block more than 100 types of security and anti-virus software from killing it, and bypasses the Windows firewall to download files from remote locations, spreading them randomly over your hard drive and any portable storage device you plug into your PC -- like, for example, a digital photo frame. The trojan is apparently set to only steal gaming passwords at present, but CA says it's capable of stealing nearly any information on your machine, and thinks it might be a test for a much worse virus yet to come. Infected frames have come from Sam's Club, Target and Costco, in addition to Best Buy, so we'd say to avoid picking one up until this mess gets sorted out -- or, you know, forever.

Kyle
I wanted to know if it were possible to use my mac as a portable drive type of thing, I only have two laptops, and no desktop, so I want to get one of them to hold info for the other even if they cant be used on the opposite system. I want to download dc universe online but dont want to defeat the purpose by having major lagging
Answer
You can get a 1TB portable hard drive for under $70 now. That would be easier and work better. Check Costco or Best Buy.
