I was overwhelmed by phone calls the day of and most of them were from after they had watched the news on TV, telling everyone to unplug their computers! Technically, how crazy is this? I mean it is a date, and so unplugging it to bypass the day entirely is crazy, since the trigger time would have already past. Do they really think the creator of a virus that was to be released on a specific day, wouldn't become active AFTER that day? And what about the Anti virus you should have installed on your computer? Don't you think the anti-virus vendors have already created a patch for something that was reportedly supposed to attack on a specific day? Of course they did. So to unplug your computer, or for that matter, even turn off your computer from the internet, would actually be more detrimental since now, when you turn your computer back on, would be out of date with ALL VIRUSES and would have to begin updating your computer once again.
