Warning Msn!!
 

I have just been sent a trojan horse through MSN ...

It starts like this:

HAHA this is you >> with a link!! and it looks like it's a contact on your msn that sent it.... It isn't... don't be fooled.

Please don't open, it's a virus.

It has just took me nearly 1hr 30mins stuck in safe mode doing a full system scan. :( It's gone now.

But I just wanted to warn you all!!

Re: Warning Msn!!

Errrm no I wont remember, I was swimming in the Mediterranean sea sometime round about then :D

But, I thought I would warn everyone... it looks like it has affected quite a few people tonight.

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

Yeah it's a good idea.... Adults are usually reluctant to open things like this... but kids dont understand. My niece opened hers cos it said it was off me... so I have had to ring her and tell her how to get rid of it :(

Just warned my son though!! Luckily he wasn't on his laptop at the time...

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

i got it tonight too , but didn't open it !!

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

MSN is always getting viruses through it , Ive heard of so many people having probs.

Thanks for the warning though slinks.

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

I got it from three of ny contacts on here, am always very wary about opening this sort of thing but when it came off three was damm sure it was dodgy

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

Touch wood!! that is the first one I have had for about 3 years!!

But they do look so convincing sometimes.

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

Yeah i know im just running a scan .....

with any luck it will find it ...

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

Just a thought but when I got the last one which was the one Em got my security warned me it could contain stuff that would harm my computer. Did your security not warn you not to open the link?

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

Thanks for the warning.

when i was in ibiza i went on my msn and as soon as i logged in i got a window opened from my friend from ibiza saying something like hiya what do you think of this picture, i knew it was a virus cuz my friend does not speak a word of english let alone write so i just closed it, since then i have been having the same thing tons of times but i just close the window

Re: Warning Msn!!
 

never and won't use MSN, someone once warned me it was dodgy n as i'm completly stupid with computers, i thought ****** it.
