Chapter 342: Overture to Information Warfare

Steve smirked his weapon at the player and walked on to the next monster.

He glanced at the time, and it was exactly ten o'clock.

In more than ten seconds, he killed a monster, picked up the gold coins scattered on the ground, and continued to upgrade with his tired body.

Suddenly, he found the computer chassis under his feet, and the fan was whirring.

The speed of the computer also suddenly became very fast, and when he was fighting monsters, the computer actually made a light and shadow effect that could not be made on the Dell computer!

What gorgeous, brilliant picture quality!

Steve was sighing when a burning smell suddenly flooded his nose.

Then, the computer screen flickered, and in an instant, all the pictures turned pitch black, only in the center of the screen, a white point of light appeared, which was slowly disappearing.

What's going on?

He bent down, ready to check on the main chassis.

However, the lights in the room flickered and went out.....

Steve froze for a moment, grabbed his hair to lift his spirits, and staggered to the window and opened the curtains.

Being in front of the computer for a long time, the dazzling sunlight made him a little unable to open his eyes.

"Falk oil!"

“damn it....”

Upstairs and downstairs, there was a faint sound of cursing.

Was it a power outage?

It's weird, how can there be a power outage in New York?

Steve hadn't slept for a day and a night, and his mind was a lake of pulp.

He thought about it, anyway, the power went out, so it was better to get some sleep first, and then devote himself to the game when he was rested.

He returned to the bedside, his face was not washed, his clothes were not taken off, and he fell into bed and soon fell asleep.

Little did Steve know that when he woke up, it wasn't as simple as a call to continue playing.

At the very least, he would have to replace the computer with a new processor, overclock, and replace the burned-out Intel processor.

This time.

A lot of people don't realize it.

This is a virus program that specifically targets overclocking chips!

Infinity's chips, because they can stabilize Intel's head, in order to maintain the overall stable operating environment of the system, they lock the main frequency and external frequency.

However, in recent years, in order to catch up with the speed of Dimensity chips, Intel's publicity has focused on their overclocking performance.

If necessary, users can freely adjust the voltage of the chip through some software to get a faster running speed.

Now, this speed has been adjusted!

In seven days, millions of computers were infected, and at this moment the computers that were running at this moment all started the virus program at the same time.

A very small number of users who are sensitive to the reflection can also avoid the doom of the chip being burned by pulling the power plug.

However, if you want to completely remove this virus program, it is not enough to rely on advanced formatting alone, you must perform the original formatting and re-format the data area of the hard disk.

This also means that all user data on the hard drive will be lost!

That's lucky.

Those users who are slow to respond can only smell the burning smell of the computer motherboard, and watch the computer speed change very quickly, and then within two or three seconds, it will return to a black screen.

Most computers throughout New York and throughout the United States have suffered the same fate.

Companies that are passing documents and negotiating business.

Investors who are placing an order to trade.

Research units that are processing data.

Employees of the company who are designing the plan.....

Millions of unsuspecting computer users have been wiped out at this moment!

Companies, factories, and institutional departments that rely heavily on computers have fallen into a state of complete paralysis.

Personnel panicked.

All the information was urgently presented to the various departments in the United States.

The FBI, the Pentagon, the state courts, all have a large number of computer crashes, and they have to face a steady stream of damage reports.

Countless computer experts and technicians are urgently investigating what virus caused this unprecedented catastrophe.

President Bush, the saxophone cowboy known as the most incompetent, received the news and instantly burst into anger.

Who the hell dares to get their American heads?!

In just ten minutes, a jihadist organization declared to the outside world that they had created the entire computer disaster and that they wanted to bring down the American economy completely!

President Bush was so angry that he immediately ordered the FBI to track down everything about this organization and punish it severely!

After half an hour of technical searching, computer experts reported that the culprit of the virus had been found and the specific code was now being analyzed.

It will take a little time for them to decompile it.

Only if you fully understand how this program works can you write a patch file and an antivirus tool for it.

At this time, the news of the large-scale computer paralysis in the United States spread all over the world through the communication network.

Europe has been disconnected from the United States, followed by Asia, and only some countries in North America, such as Canada, are also facing computer paralysis.

There are still some computer users who don't dare to turn on the computer at all.

The incident erupted within an hour.

On various large websites in the United States, posts have suddenly appeared, and some people claim to have written antivirus programs specifically against this virus.

Panicked American computer users have flocked to download and install.

In less than 10 minutes, the number of downloaders reached millions, more than the number of users in the past seven days.

However, this is just another virus.

Countless computer users who have been fooled are dumbfounded by the virus that is downloaded immediately and onset immediately.

Millions of computer users were caught off guard by this shot.

A large number of computers have become waste!

At this time, the FBI personnel suddenly received a secret phone call.

The person on the phone informed about the location of this so-called Mujahideen in the United States.

Their officers were immediately dispatched and rounded up several of the reported locations.

Fortunately, they moved very quickly, and instead of letting these virus spreaders escape, they blocked them in the hiding place.

Although they shouted many times with their horns, the people inside just didn't speak.

In the standoff between the two sides.

A middle-aged man with an obvious Maoist appearance was suddenly killed by a bullet fired from the room when he tried to come out and surrender.

It was later found that the person, named Kane, was the main participant and creator of the virus attack.

The people of the whole United States spurned this person and hated him to the extreme.

FBI agents were forced to take a strong attack and carry out a fire attack on the hiding places of these saboteurs.

During the battle, the opponent also set fire to the house and wanted to burn all the incriminating evidence.

The operatives could no longer care about the original intention of capturing alive, and after paying a great price, they forcibly stormed the house and killed all the remaining suspicious people.

And from the inside, some files that have not been burned are rescued, as well as computer hard disks that have not been damaged.

They aggregated the evidence gathered in several places and found that all the information pointed to one person:

Saddam!

President Bush was furious on television and vowed to retaliate by any means with the greatest support since his election!
