Angry OT: Did anyone get that stupid Yaha virus?
That stupid virus reaked havoc on my home and office P.C.

Luckily it was an easy fix once we figured out what it was.

Clever little bastard though

This is way OT, but how did it hit, i.e. e-mail attachment?

Yup, came via email. It was really strange because it would take a piece of a document out of the computers document files, find a title from the document and send that as an email to everyone in the computers address book. I got all kinds of emails. One about a cleaning service, another about BMW Vanos stuff, and another about friendly screen savers. Pretty crazy stuff.
