There are many ways you can get viruses, it might be because you added a less than good repo or for who knows what reason. Still not excluding errors on the part of fedora. Sucks though in any case.

You could just back up important data and do a fresh install, right? I would just put the stuff right back (as always: I guess do as I say not as I do) and go about my life

In almost all of my trials, I used only tor for about a few hours with javascript off. So I’m pretty sure I got the virus from fedora and/or tor update. I just can’t prpve it because using wireshark in Qubes OS is complicated (or I failed). But before that I used to use kicksecure and got a wireshark record from there. There were connections made to Github, Google and Amazon out of nowhere. I just want people to live without viruses, so I warn them. Unfortunately viruses invade also bios, so I had to sell the system. I know it because I tried clean install and the slow downs and wierd behaviours continued on a kicksecure pc. So why not would it not continue in a Qubes setup?
