Virus going around on MSN [important]

[kasi]

If someone says to you... "Hey, is this you?" with a link, don't click it whatever you do. 2 of my friends, Derik and Jake, have it. I almost clicked it until someone signed in with his username saying it was a virus. Ty Matt. xD.

Btw I don't know if this is right forum?

The other day this random person just started talking to me. That wasn't on my contact list or i hadn't accepted their invite thing. I don't know how they did it, and they was being really weird. So i blocked them thinking they could be using a spy thing or anything to get into my pc. Soo..?

[Absently]

the link is a vbulletin thing and the last part of the link is your email, do not click it. the email is for the thing so it sends the link to whoevers online..

Viruses are harmless unles you open them, Then you normal set it to work when you start windows. A easy way to get rid of them is to end the prog and delete the file but sometimes it can get into ur system files and mess everthing up.

Happend to me, didn't fool for it after the last MSN Virus with the Titanic.jpg which was really not a jpg anyhoo, thanks for the info :D

[thechoo]

There was another virus [no idea if it's still around]
And it was a link and if you clicked it, it sent it to all of your online contacts.
I ended up getting 7 times a day or so..
Until it disappeared.
It was a link to a woman and a horse [COUGHHHH]
I still have nightmares...

It says somethign like:
"Oh my god, look at these photos [INSERT YOUR NAME] they are really cool [LINK]"
So it's like ooh that's my name!
But don't xD

[Emo]

I heard about it a while ago.. luckily I haven't recieved it yet.

Thanks for the warning, though. :)
