I don't know if anyone else has experienced the same problem but I had a
difficult time getting rid of the Sorcerer emulator (virus).
I believe this was the Java emulator. I went to the website over a week
ago and checked it out and then never went back again. However, today it
popped up on it's own somehow (from one of my browser windows I think). I
couldn't get rid of it. It seemed every window I clicked on, the emulator
would try to establish a presence in that window. This included other
programs, the toolbar, etc.
I couldn't kill it from the program manager (CTRL-ALT-DEL) and closing all
the browser windows didn't do any good either. I could still move my
mouse but at that point nothing was responding. I did another
CTRL-ALT-DEL and the window came up but I couldn't click any buttons.
Finally I hit CAD a bunch of times in frustration and rebooted my machine.
Someone ought to let the guy who wrote it know that he has a serious bug
somewhere.
