FYI...
I just got a virus about an hour or two ago. I wasn't doing anything expect lurking the forums.
It started out with an Acrobat error. I went into task manager, and some sort of A3D process running.
Then, a fake malware scanner popped up.
By then, I shut down and scanned. It came up with Win32\Alureon.H, and Java\Clagent.A (these are the definitions from the windows security essentials scanner).
After cleanup, IE was inoperable, so I had to reset all settings.
I'm not sure what to blame. Possibly an out of date Java or Acrobat.
But anyway - be careful out there.
