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!!
 
oh dear... I got one not long ago and now wont open anything unless ive checked its real..

heres the link to the thread i started that *ahem*some of you may not remember ;) :D

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.
 
oh thanks for that will warn the kids

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

Thanks for the warning though slinks.
 
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

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

But they do look so convincing sometimes.
 
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?
 
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
 
never and won't use MSN, someone once warned me it was dodgy n as i'm completly stupid with computers, i thought bugger it.
 
i got one the other week through Neil, it looked like a link but wasnt, Neil knew nothing about it when i shouted at him for it lol
 
I don't use MSN myself but my girls do so I'll tell them to be careful - one of them is using my PC at the mo because her laptop is kaput (ish).
 
i got one too last night, sorry if it got through to other people on my msn list, i got shut after chav rang & told me it had gone to him whilst yakking on msn to him, (the naughty thing) they are an absolute pest so i do apologise to all i seemingly sent it too.

When I got back from Mums turned my computer on and it seemed I was very popular because everyone wanted to chat on MSN. Seeing as everyone was sending me the same message knew it was suspect so just deleted it.
