VIRUS WARNING!!!

Post by bigbluemav »

Hi All

If you get a email from pig24b@hotmail.com with a subject "Read it immediately" delete it immediately!!!!!

I don't know who he/she is and is probably a victim also, but beware and delete the message.

I get viruses every day on my email.

Any unknown email with an attachment on it goes straight to the delete bin.

I downloaded Norton Anti-Virus for free. It Updates itself automatically and checks every email that comes in. It probably deletes about 3 emails a day that contain viruses.

I've got AVG which picked it up no probs.

The only reason I didn't delete it and have posted is that it came in on my ISP email. I only give this email to the three 4x4 forums I am a member of, so if this bloke got a virus that got into his address book, others in the groups are at risk.

Sorry for breaking the unwritten laws of the forum universe you twit :x

Its just that my assumption would be that most people when they log on go straight to this area and considering that people on this board could be impacted, I thought it may be important!!

Some people don't even go into the general chit chat section!!! :roll: :roll:

And as for cyber jesus and cyber moses, who was undoubtedly handed the forum board commandments by cyber god him very self.....they can all get cyber f*%$(ed along with your ass :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

And ditto for Tonka's knob gobbling reply!!

Kindest Regards :lol: :lol: :lol:

I got one today from "OUTERLIMITS", that was all, with an attachment, some very similar with names of the board, or topics, The one on our system is getting names out of email address books, so they look familiar, but to date all have been blocked, I've had trouble since going to a site Searssy posted up, and it caused my computer to crash.
Try not to let your mind wander...It is too
