| 229837 | 2004-04-16 10:17:00 | msn messenger on my comp has started going crazy as random popus appear every 2 minutes saying that I have a virus or pornographic material and asks me to either go to www.win-clean.com or smut-remover.com, both sound dodgy so i havnt visited them yet. This only started happening 3 days ago and im puzzled as to how i got it in the first place as i have a firewall and antivirus program installed and running for the past 2yrs and updated weekly. Is there some flaw in msn that is being exploited by someone? | vk_dre (195) | ||
| 229838 | 2004-04-16 10:35:00 | Are you shore it is Not Messenger Service? See here: www.grc.com & if it is the Messenger Service there is a fix for it there in the above web page as well. | stu120404 (268) | ||

| 229840 | 2004-04-16 12:55:00 | Question is: what are you doing surfing the net without a firewall? | PoWa (203) | ||
