What is this you ask? It’s a term that is being used for a new SEO (Serch Engine Optimization) contest held by SEOlogs.com

It really has nothing to do with spyware removal but since some of my visitors are webmasters, I thought it might be a topic of interest to them.

Kinda funny sounding.

rbot.ebq

What is it?

That’s the million dollar question! and here is the answer:

rbot.ebq is a new worm (computer virus) that attacks unsecured computer networks and uses this connection to spread to computers on the network. It attacks Microsoft Windows 2000 and early versions of MS Windows XP.

It is spreading with great speed and if you are using the above mentioned operating system you might have reason to worry. Symptoms include your computer shutting down and restarting without warning… if this looks familiar you should check out the spyware/virus removal links in the menu sidebar and look for a program that might help remove this!
