PM Warning / Advise

[zaskar]

In my "inbox", I have a PM from SYMBIOSIS.
I can't find a member by that name in the members list and am very suspicious about opening it after whats been happening on FUN this week.

Anybody advise please?

Hi Zaskar, I believe Jim said that PM's are just text messages and its not possible to get a virus from them, however it is possible if you click on any links in them.

I have had the same, just deleat

I had the same one as well, deleted it just because of the stupid message with it, strange idiot, By the way i was told that you NEVER click on a link, just copy nd paste ny link you want to open, as there may be a virus or something hidden insde the link you lick on, but copy and pasting gets exactly what you want.

hi, we are new members san and chris and we have also had the same message in our in box but deleted it more than likely a scam e mail or virus. had a word with a friend who works for bt broadband he said if you dont recognise it dont open it

I got same message as well, I deleted it.

A VERY VERY good antivirus that is free for a while is Microsoft Live one care, a while ago I had a virus I could not get rid of, I purchased about three anti virus software programes including symantec and nothing stopped it, I kept getting windows popping up with gambling on, somebody told me about Live one care and I downloaded it I did the scan and never had a problem again.

It protects anything that tries to go on your computer.
