Greetin’ Cards – Thank you for your visit and comment
As advised, greeting cards do not come in the form of .exe files yet sadly many users still click the links and download malware to their computers.
Have a great day,
Colin

Yeah, if you ever see something that wants you to confirm a download, especially greeting cards, and it ends in .exe never ever open it.

I received the ecard, and symantec caught the virus. However, it didn’t stop a file from being placed on my desktop. I was cleaning up my desktop and saw this weird file and clicked on it to drag to the recycle bin, but inadvertently opened it. Now my computer restarts about every 5 minutes and I don’t know how to make it stop. Any suggestions?
