I'm someone who has backups of my stuff uploaded to a cloud service. I even have backups of those backups stored on my lap, and at the same time, more backups on my External Hard Drive.
Today, I had to download a file from my cloud and I noticed the legend: "Searching for viruses before downloading" and I realized that I haven't had to deal with one in a very, very long time.
Not talking about years... no... I'm talking about probably a decade ago. Really!
The last time I had to deal with a virus was when I had a Desktop PC, and got infected with the virus that duplicates the trash bin and won't let you delete stuff.
I certainly don't remember much as that happened in 2011 or so. Of course, my PC died some days after that. So it had to get fixed.
Then, in 2014, I dealt with the Artemis one, but this wasn't mine, it was on my aunt's laptop, and I (again) can't remember if I succesfully got rid of it or not.
I'm curious, as always...
Do you have a similar story?
Have you scanned your system for one lately?
What's your favourite Software to remove viruses?
When was the last time you dealt with a virus? Where you able to get rid of it?
