Guru meditation on my PC!
« on: May 21, 2007, 06:04:32 PM »
Seriously!

I've been ignoring my virus alerts for the last couple of weeks and today I let it scan for the whole day. Back from work I noticed 5 alerts. Dear me. No problem that Kaspersky can't fix, so I let it "neutralize" it. One of the files kept bugging so I deleted it manually. When Kaspersky ran into it, i got the following error and it look pretty familiar to me!!

Guru meditation on my pc!!!

Now I wonder if it's Kasperky's trick or the damn trojan!?
(I now see they spelled it wrong)

Apparently someone at Winamp has a thing for Amigas :-)

Guru Meditation errors are also adopted in Nullsoft Winamp's script engine "MAKI" (Winamp3 and Winamp5 freeform skin engine) when something goes wrong.


XScreenSaver has the BSOD one, which displays a nice cycle of
various death screens, including the Guru Meditation :-)

That's pretty cool.

Been using Winamp for about 7 years now and I've never seen that error.

Mind you, I don't really see errors with Winamp anyways :-D

That's not a virus, it's an operating system upgrade!  :-D
