Off Topic, but important to users of Steam 03/13/2013, 13:08:00

The Elf Herself writes: This morning Papa Elf and I separately discovered Trojan Horses in our Steam files. Fortunately, our spyware program was able to offer a "cure." ("Cure" is in quotes because I don't know whether using Steam before Valve assures us that the problem is taken care of on their end will re-infect us or not.) I've notified Steam of the problem, so the ball is in their court, IMHO. Incidentally, the Trojan is called TROJAN.AGENT/GEN-NEKAV, if any of you (Dave O?) are familiar with the bug.

I've always thought it was nice not to be the "Oldest" somewhere / almost anywhere. I was passing my own 73rd about the time this thread was current. (n/t) - Kiwi ( Thu 01-Aug-13 13:07:40 )
