Come Monday July 9th, computers infected with the DNS Changer Malware will lose internet connectivity. Several of our clients have expressed concern, and have asked how to ensure that their computer has not been affected.

Firstly, the malware will only affect Windows users, so if this is not you you need not worry. For those of us with a Windows machine, the FBI has set up a page on their website to check your computer. This page can be found at https://forms.fbi.gov/check-to-see-if-your-computer-is-using-rogue-DNS. This page provides you with a place to put your DNS information, and if you are unsure how to locate this, there is also a link to a PDF file which explains how.

If it turns out that you have been affected, you should call your Internet provider to solicit their help in changing your DNS. Also, you will want to change passwords for all applications and websites, as they may have been compromised.
