399884 2005-10-27 21:42:00 Why?

399886 2005-10-27 22:13:00 don;t you think it's wired? dds (7234)
399887 2005-10-28 04:25:00 Whose email addy is that embedded in that URL? And more to the point, why is it in the URL? Where did you find that URL?

Can you explain what you find so fascinating about that parked domain name that is up for sale?

Bit suspicious of the reason why that URL was posted ...

399888 2005-10-28 04:54:00 Im sure theres a virus going round MSN right now that involves the url messengerstats.net and when you open it it tries to download an .exe file.

Hmmmm

399889 2005-10-28 09:17:00 A bit of further research shows that the URL that dds posted is related to trojan/virus when clicked upon as imarubberducky suggests.

If anyone has followed that link before I removed it, then I would advise they check their system with a current AV application.

dds has been permanently banned for posting malicious links.

399891 2005-10-28 09:42:00 If anyone has followed that link before I removed it, then I would advise they check their system with a current AV application.Those of you that do find yourself infected should consider getting a better browser.

Opera or Firefox ftw.

399892 2005-10-28 09:45:00 Thank goodness my internet speed was dropped and I was downloading something already. When I first saw the initial contents of the site which loaded slowly, it was promptly closed.

Running a scan now as I speak
