Garry's Mod/Steam Exploit *cough* - Bert John - Apr 19 2014

Mainly hundred's of garrys mod server's are spreading around a virus that makes the client spam *cough* through ingame & steam itself.
EDIT: The client gets infected with this file, then when they leave, they join a new server and upload it there, and basically it just spams everywhere... infected servers have 3 ! infront of there names
Luckily it seems if you just turn sv_allowdownload and sv_allowupload to 0 and take the rcon pass out of server.cfg it should be fine
[Looks like a garrys mod only issue, so css should be fine?]
EDIT2: New version of virus released, deleting peoples files... id highly recommend staying off server's you know that arn't protected yet[Many server's are applying the patch, but theres still a bit that haven't]
EDIT3: Trojan's! http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1351764
EDIT4: It's now changing player's names and such
EDIT5: There's a fix here: http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1386855
Remember, this is ONLY GARRYS MOD, Not CSS
All fixed, All good, http://steamcommunity.com/games/garrysmod/announcements/detail/1498880232135333176
Note: Id recommend everyone who experianced this to reinstall garrys mod, as there was a trojan and another virus that stole credit cards
