Re: April fools virus
More than likely it'll be a dud. This has happend before, lots of infected computers and poorly writen code means a big non-event. But lots of people seem to be genuinely worried about this one.

Re: April fools virus
Because the script checks the date by checking popular websites like yahoo, it doesn't go via system clock

Re: April fools virus
Im not worried, im using a Mac, Macs dont have viruses nor do they crash or break, Macs are uber reliable, they never catch dirty sleazy USBTD thats USB-Transmitted Disease.
My mac has never crashed and will certainly not be affected by this bug, my Mac is sup....*brain dead* /sarcasm but seriously though i dont think this will affect me much
