D'narg Regnar-The Grand One säger:

------------------------ This is the beginning of problems, be wary of these lines, I was drinking my first cup of coffe, not to bright at this early hours..
-----------------------------------------
Wolfgir säger:

D'narg Regnar-The Grand One säger:

Wolfgir säger:

------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
D'narg Regnar-The Grand One vill skicka filen
"PIC1324(2)(1)(2).exe" (33 kB)-----This is the bugger! Don´t accept it!!!
till dig. Överföringstiden är mindre än 1 minut med ett 28,8-modem. Vill du Acceptera (Alt+T) eller Neka (Alt+D) inbjudan?

Well this is the conclusion..
Wolfgir säger:
Did you know that you have a virus in your puter..
D'narg Regnar-The Grand One säger:
Hmm,thats strange...SSJ said that too me the other day..It was his picture..

Well as you see, it seems that this bloody virus sort of kidnaps your account and sends the file forward to people you chat with! MAn I hate this virus crap!! GRRRRRRRR

I know about that. I think it was Azzie who accidently tried to infect me, but I asked him about it first, and he said he didn't even WANT to send anything!! Be careful guys!! Don't let some whacko ruin your comp!!

The ones that look like they are from your friends are always the worst.
It's a sad fact of life that it is best to check and double check.
