Last week I got a virus called Ramnit and my computer died. Not sure how I got it. My protection program AVG said it was Quarantined but it came back 6 times before it took everything off my hard drive. My Son will try to retrieve what he can when he comes around. Thankfully I do back up but not the last month. So now I will back up each week not monthly. I will also stop my GD's from going to you tube to watch cartoons...they love moshie monsters and silly me thought it was ok for them now I think I have paid the price.

Anyone else had trouble with this. I had never heard of it until then...hugs Kezza

Oh Kezza I am so sorry for you.
There have been a lot of warnings about this virus, especially associated with facebook.
I do hope your son can restore your pc.

There are so many mischievous people out there with too much time on their hands and the will to ruin others lives! That is really unfortunate. I download files to my computer and then transfer the files, right away, to an external hard drive. So far, so good. Good luck with your rebuild and replacing lost files!!
