So there's this virus going around? Both of my parents' computers are useless. And I know five or six other people (including angearia) whose computers have gotten it as well.

Does anybody know anything about it? What sites I should avoid, etc.? I've got everything I really need backed up on my external harddrive, but I'm still horribly paranoid about having to pay money to get my laptop fixed.

Does anybody know anything?

This post, brought to you by my mama's frantic phonecall about how I need to be careful because I don't have the money to buy a new laptop.
