Yesterday when i arrived home from skool, I was all ready to release my 2 Enfields, Carbine and Garand skins...unfortunately my windows had been totally screwed, a million and 1 files were missing and windows is unaccessable, i tried re installing windows over itself and every other thingh i know but failed, that means i lost everything so looks like ill have to fix it now. Lucky i still have all the essential files such as windows, ps7, dod and hlmv on cd, so once im back up then ill release sum stuff soon:)

What happened do you have any clue? Where you running any P2P programs (Kazaa etc) while you where gone? Very strange and sad indeed.

Yeh, had kazaa, i told my bro 100 000 000 times not to install it and i suppose that may have caused it. Yes it was very weird indeed.

Kazaa lite
pffffft
I got a virus while downloading music. Completly cooked my 130 gig hard drive. What's worse, it was 2 weeks after reformating it and loosing all my great 3.1 files.
Yeah it was propably a virus from a music file. Waht happened, did you have a system error and where u forced to reboot?

whos talking about warez:rolleyes:
were only talking about downloading demo music and stuff:D
You can't get a virus from an mp3 file. You could download one that was infected but those chances are rare and it wouldn't spread anyways. If it was a virus from Kazaa you might have searched for that demo music under All and you might have downloaded a .vbs (Visual Basic Script) file with the same name on accident. You run one of those with a virus inside and it'll infect your attack that computer of yours.
Anyways, that bites that your computer got fried. I'm really liking your skins so far.

well Bittles, I don't know how either but it was from a mp3 file. I'm sure it was because I always search "audio" and not "all". I know exactly which song it is because as soon as it finished downloading, my pc got all fux0r3d.
aah well.

Did you have a virus checker at all on your PC?
