Yup, There Is One Not Disimaler To That In English, Click It, And Get Infected.

Beaumanoirs Advice: ALWAYS CHECK WITH THE PERSON YOUR TALKING TO BEFORE YOU CLICK A LINK!!!

yeah, those **** that made that stuff are real ****** (lots of censored around here )
They probably don't have anything better to do, if only I knew who put it on, I'd give em back something they would remember for quite awhile.

Yes, these things.... I never click on a link in MSN unless im told exactly what it is, or atleast the person gives some acknowledgement that they did send it... (for example, giving a referance to IW with the link), or if the link is to a site which I recognise, for example www.tgeweb.com/blablabla... as long as I recognise the domain, I will trust it... or if im given a run down on what it is...


Also- DONT SEND ANY FILES VIA MSN!! Also, dont accept files sent to u via MSN... have them sent to ur hotmail, it scans with McAffee and wont let you open or attach a file in which a virus is detected. MSN does not do this, and with alot of viruses, as soon as it is on ur hard disk (which it has to be for u to view it from a file sent to you via MSN)... also, look at the bottom of the screen where it says "xxxx is typing a message" ... sometimes it will say something like "presidantbush@whitehouse.org is typing a message"... and sometimes the message they type will be something along the lines of "Presidant Bush shooter is a game that allow you to shoot bushes balls HAHAH!! "... worst thing about that... since when does Bush have balls ?? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
