U.S. Drone Fleet Infected With Computer Virus

America’s Predator and Reaper drones have been infected with a computer virus.  So far all that is publicly known is that the malware is logging the pilots keystrokes as they fly missions.  Removal attempts have failed, as the soon virus returns. There is speculation that it is not malicious and could be a variation of some common malware.

This goes to show that anyone is susceptible to getting infected by viruses, malware, and spyware. While practicing safe and responsible email and web surfing tactics go a long way in helping to keep your system clean, there is no fool-proof way fully secure it.  Today’s malware is active in trying to find ways into your system.

If you find your computer has been infected, then give SpeedWise, Denver computer services a call! We have a very comprehensive virus removal service that will clean off all pieces and parts of the infection and give you back full control of your computer.
