The Washington Post blog gives a well-deserved back-pat to the very knowledgeable folks in our Security forum, who’ve been helping people remove the MonaRonaDona virus for the last few days. This one’s a bit interesting: the virus in question makes as much noise as possible, embedding its name in every IE window — making sure users do a Google search for removal. The top search result (or it used to be until our users got involved) was for a $39.90 piece of software that will only remove MonaRonaDona — aka “extortionware.”
