l3ite_me1313 Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Ok last night, I got an IM asking me "Check out my picture for myspace and tell me what you think" IF you get this DO NOT CLICK THE LINK. It IS A VIRUS. What I have concluded is that one person started it, and its spread to one person causing his AIM to automatically spread it to everyone logged on at that time, this happened to me, and now it is causing a chain reaction. You might not get this soon, but if you do. Don't click the link. Luckily I just exited the IM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry_Gumball Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Is it a virus or is it more like a spyware? Recently, my mom's computer (which my bro uses) has been acting strange: Displaying popups about Winfixer or whatever it's called, an error message about a security breach something to do with a worm...lastly, sometimes, imgages wouldn't show up. I reformatted the computer twice over now and still it does some of it's weird quirky things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RtherBOnACoaster Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 I got that virus. I didnt think much of the link because it was said to be from one of my best friends. It said something like Look at this picture, it looks like you! So I clicked it and got it then got rid of it with Spybot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
