Many hoominz have known about it for quite a while,
DumMeowmee completly missed out. :p

The FBI is directing computer users to the following site to see if your
computer is infected
http://www.dcwg.org or more directly... http://www.dns-ok.us/

It takes a second to check, especially with the direct site
http://www.dns-ok.us/.
If it comes up green, your are good. I got a green ;-).
If not, the fix is not hard. Remember, you have untill Sunday nite to
protect yourself.

I believe that what is being said is that yur computer content is not
scanned by this ,
program, it just ascertains that it is directed to the correct website,
instead of being kidnapped to a fallacious one.

The option to doing nothing is to run the risk of Monday takeover sigh

Thousands could lose access to the Internet on July 9 due to a virus,
DNSChanger, that once infected approximately 4 million computers across
the world! The Federal Bureau of Investigation first gave details about
the virus last November, when it announced the arrest of the malware’s
authors. The virus, as its name indicates, affected computers’ abilities
to correctly access the Internet’s DNS system — essentially, the
Internet’s phone book. The virus would redirect Internet users to fake
DNS servers, often sending them to fake sites or places that promoted
fake products. Once the FBI shut down the operation, it built a safety
net of new servers to redirect traffic from those infected with the
virus.But that safety net is going offline next Monday meaning that
anyone who is still infected with the virus will lose access to the
Internet unless they remove it from their machine.To see if you have the
virus, you can head to any number of checker Web sites such as the DNS
Changer Working Group or theFBI itself to either enter your IP address
or simply click a button to run a check against addresses known to have
problems. With any luck, you’ll be free and clear and won’t have to
worry about the problem any further.If you are infected with the virus,
then you’ve got a longer — but not impossible — process ahead of you.
According to the DCWG, those infected with the virus should first back
up any important files. You can do that fairly easily with an external
hard drive or even a thumb drive.From there, you can run one of several
trusted tools to get rid of the virus. Again, the DCWG has a list of
them on its site, which includes programs such as Microsoft Windows
Defender Off line, Norton Power Eraser and MacScan, all of which have
updated their definitions to include this particular virus.The group
recommends that you use multiple tools to make sure you have a wider net
of virus definitions to choose from.Scanning your computer regularly for
viruses is a good idea anyway, to make sure that your virus definitions
are up-to-date. So even if you’ve scanned in the past few months, take
this opportunity to run a check and avoid your own personal doomsday.

The option to doing nothing is to run the risk of Monday takeover sigh
