Internet block out by malware.

A few days ago the FBI  had warned infected computers would be blocked from accessing the internet.

A virus or malware installed on unsuspecting computers still could hold a threat on your personal information.

If you feel your computer may be at risk here is the yahoo article I found today which has a few links on where to get help.
