buildit Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Come Monday you may not be able to connect to the internet if your browser is infected with the DNS virus. This virus redirects your browser to sites that earn income by having visitors. The FBI is disabling service to computer infected with the virus monday for security reasons.You can precheck your computer by visiting www.dns-ok.us/ and it will tell you if your browser is infected. There is also information on removing the virus if your computer is infected.Someone like Casper can confirm the issue, I just heard it on the news.
