Re: Awww

They probably hooked it up to the bench's LAN and another system that was infected hit your system since both were not patched.

I got one, courtesy of Best Buy. Seriously, I brought in my laptop for repair and found the msblaster virus on it. Go figure.

I would not be suprised if they put it on there, intentionally. Best buy is a rip off.

The only thing I buy from there now are blank CD's and DVD's.

They probably wanted to pay you $50 for their anti-virus removal.

Maybe they wanted to milk you for more money to repair the thing.
