go after the people who put the malware on the net. Particularly the anti-virus one that disables your whole computer except the connection to their anti-virus/anti-malware site so you can buy it? The place must have an ip address and should be fairly easy to nab them. A computer owner in order to remove it has to lay out at least a hundred bucks for professionals to take it off the computer.

The mal-ware mimics you're own program now and warns you that your computer has mal-ware trying to get on your computer then gets in when you click on what looks like your own program warning you.

1. The place that puts the malware is in Russia
or in China and the authorities in Russia and or China are getting a kickback so they don't bother to take it down.

2. I fix that problem every time with a very quick system restore.
It's happened two or three times to myself and a few others. I've beat it each time. But you have to do a lightening fast system restore. Don't waste a single second.

3. Silly Democrat - Government isn't for "little people"
Edited on Tue Jul-19-11 09:49 AM by FreakinDJ
We are much too busy protecting Big Oil's interest world wide, protecting the Wall St Banks from some desperate Welfare Mom passing a bad check to buy food for her children, protecting the Wealthy Elite from having to endure watching some homeless man pillage through their garbage looking for a morsel of "Used food", preventing children from playing with skate boards on the commercial property of Corporate interest.

If you want protection like that you'll just have to pay money for it to the "Free Markets" which is the only solution
