Gmail problems ignored by google!
Apparently my gmail page was hacked and infected by the clickjacking worm/trojan/bot. After months (April? August to date)struggling with an undetectable (by AV/computer pros) clickjacking problem, I infected a new laptop computer by clicking on the link to my sophos AV download on my gmail page. No mail downloaded, no other link clicked, used different network, was running mcafee that came with the computer.
No I had not updated windows as yet.

Because of the months of problems, I was hoping to get sophos installed before I did anything else. I have obtained NO HELP or acknowledgment from Gmail. Another user wrote that he had been infected by the PER_SALITY.JER virus, tracked back to his Gmail. Minor attention was given to my report of the associated google desktop problems (uninstalled GDT ASAP, greyed out GDT swirl near cursor recurred suspiciously, related to attempts to scan with online AV, etc. I am still infected with the clickjacker. However gmail is now forwarded to a paid address site with no new infections acquired from reading email.
I also used google documents and infected a different computer from that site.

Gmail ignores issues, fails to respond to information provided by users or requests for help. Google was excellent, now I am concerned about the entire concept, and their inability to maintain the necessary security.
