    just heard about an alarming computer virus. it can apparently hijack your browser and it collects all the urls you type into it. if it sees you connect to a secure site, it copies all the info you type into a field on that page and saves that information so that a hacker can easily access your information on any account you visit online.

    there is an easy way to test for such a virus. because it writes itself in the temporary files on your computers cache there is a code to check for certain a certain image link that no one would be able to access in normal, everyday websurfing.

    below i have linked the script. if you see nothing you are fine. there is no cached file on your computer and you are probably not a victim of this virus. if an image of a cat is displayed, then you are proper fucked.

    • There's an easy fix though. Disable images.Horp
