The question begs to be asked.....

How did a hacker fry your CPU?

Hmmm....

Can you ship me the stuff you're currently on?

It sounds better than the valium I currently take when flying AH.

I think your on crack, the cpu is the processor...  Its hardware and runs on a level that cant be touched by hackers...


Now sounds to me like you been backorficed, netbused, or some other trojan...those programs alow uploads..

here is alittle tip...   partition you drive into 2 or more partitions...   On you second partition is where you store all your downloaded programs....  When windoze gets nerfed then you have a backup plan ready to go...  can be up and running in like 35mins...


A good site to check out is www.antionline.com  ;now some elite may disagree but there is much information for the newbie techie.


That will be $75.00 US consulting fee.

No Maniac, that's the hard drive  
Do not attribute to malice what can be easily explained by incompetence, fear, ignorance or stupidity, because there are millions more garden variety idiots walking around in the world than there are blackhearted Machiavellis.

I did hear of a virus that could damage your CPU (dont laugh just yet).
Early Pentium II's had an interupt driven cooling fan on them, so the power management system could turn it off and on as needed. The virus hack those routines and made it so it never turned on. And the CPU cooks.

Not bad...

Bastard thing to do to others tho.
