Hot Trend: Rebecca Black on YouTube
If you’re an aspiring entertainer these days, YouTube might just be the platform of choice for you. You can achieve fame in the blink of an eye, or at least the time it takes to play a single video. Rebecca Black has taken it to the internet — with her latest smash hit called “My Moment”. Here’s the official music video.
It definitely looks like Rebecca’s moment has arrived. She is the hottest trend on the internet at this moment. Black’s “My Moment” video has received 5,473,449+ views in a matter of days. This is a phenomenal achievement in every way.
Rebecca Black is an American pop singer who gained attention from her video entitled “Friday”. Ironically, after launching the Friday video on March 11, 2011, Black found immediate popularity while at the same time taking intense criticism. The video received 3,190,000 “dislikes” and just a short time later the song was selling like mad as a digital single.
Katy Perry’s tribute to Rebecca Black came in the form of “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” The music video has received 52,390,993+ hits up to this moment. This was another successful venture. The song reached to the top of the Billboard charts and has sold over 1,000,000 units in the United States alone.
Rebecca Black has moved beyond last Friday night for sure. Uncle Kenny told me that.

Watch Out For TDL Rootkit
Here’s a virus that infects your computer in a sophisticated manner, more so than normal. TDL3, or TDSS if you will, is invisible to Windows and some anti-malware programs. Rootkit infects your computer by replacing normal hard drivers with malicious versions of drivers.
The Main Symptons
1. The “tdsskiller rootkit” will randomly force advertisements or pop-up ads on your computer.
2. Upon doing a Google search, after you click on a search results link, you are redirected to advertisements or pop-up ads. Also, you are unable to open some programs due to this infection.
3. After getting infected, you will have a very hard time getting the internet browser to open. Even if it does, it will be very slow. Not characteristically normal.
4. Note that some sites will be blocked by the virus. You will not be able to access them.
The Fix
1. Download tdsskiller link / http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?qid=208280684. Save to desktop or My Documents folder, whatever your preference is.
2. In case the infection will not let you access the Kaspersky site, download this file to another computer that is not infected, and tranfser the file to the infected computer that you are trying to heal. This can be done with the use of a USB Flashdrive if necessary.
3. Go to bleepingcomputer.com to finish the process. You will extract the files from the zip file. You can do this by right-clicking on the tdsskiller.zip file and then selecting the Extract All.
Here’s another helpful link to assist you. It’s a forum.
This virus will attack Windows 7 or Windows XP. Beware, this is a nasty one but is curable. The Kaspersky link should do the job nicely. Reformatting should not be necessary. Even if you reformat, it may not get rid of the virus without Kaspersky. It is best to use the Kaspersky link as suggested. Has worked great so far, but I will update if the situation changes.
Update: Beware this is the worst virus that I’ve ever seen. I did get it and it is a monster because reinstalling Windows may not kill this beast! The steps I used above did the job. Hopefully security keeps up with this one.
Let’s hope that your computer doesn’t catch this awful bug. If it does, no need to panic.

Way-oh-way-oh-way-ooo-aaa-ooo…
