Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Based on the fact that it is a rapidly multiplying virus, could this almost be categorized as a cancer that cures cancer? I don't know 100% what makes a cancer a cancer, but is it not something to the tune of a virus that multiplies out of control attacking your body? Well, if a virus is multiplying out of control (or is there some control?) and attacking instead cancer cells, by definition, could it not still be considered a cancer?
What makes a cancer -
"When normal cells are damaged beyond repair, they are eliminated by apoptosis. Cancer cells avoid apoptosis and continue to multiply in an unregulated manner"
See figure - http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b7/Normal_cancer_cell_division_from_NIH.png
"Origins of cancer
Cell division or cell proliferation is a physiological process that occurs in almost all tissues and under many circumstances. Normally the balance between proliferation and programmed cell death is tightly regulated to ensure the integrity of organs and tissues. Mutations in DNA that lead to cancer disrupt these orderly processes.
The uncontrolled and often rapid proliferation of cells can lead to either a benign tumor or a malignant tumor (cancer). Benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body or invade other tissues, and they are rarely a threat to life unless they extrinsically compress vital structures. Malignant tumors can invade other organs, spread to distant locations (metastasize) and become life-threatening."
