    Default New MSN Virus scare

    It has come to my attention that their is a hacker now on peoples msn. What it does is send messages from you to other people on your list and asks " Is this your profile" and when you click it ...BANG!

    The reason you click it is because your MSN friend is the one who actually sent it. But thats the trick. It looks like your friend sent it but its actually part of the hack.

    So dont click any profile related links on your msn and you should be ok. If you have already fell for this trick as I have, uninstall your msn, run a visrus scan, then run crap cleaner and reinstal msn.

    Hope this reaches people before they get hit.

    You really have to wonder what's in a hack like this for the hackers.

    Just getting some jollies or what?
