I got a Virus!!! While getting album art from iTunes

[JesC]

Im not even worried about the damn album art anymore. I just want to know where the damn virus came from. I found out b/c I used a thumb drive on my desktop to xfer some mp3s that I just got to my laptop, when I hookup my thumb drive back on my desktop, I get a pop up from my AV saying I got a trojan on the thumb drive! Then I started getting the win32 error on my laptop! I knew it was over at that point.

But everything is back to normal on my laptop. The only thing that is installed is traktor/echo driver/acrobat/& drivers needed.

Well... I wasn't necessarily saying to have it enabled while using Traktor.

As Nemo said, you can use the online feature, of just create the emergency disk on a thumbdrive.... everytime you turn your laptop on.. scan it through the thumb drive...

There are many alternatives that can be used...

So the trojan could have also been added elsewhere, not just iTunes.
