I got one as well telling me I have a virus on my computer and to go to this site and scan my computer for a virus....ya right. I noticed Goatguy ( who I know personally) and NAA and Doug on the list as well as a few others. But these people are all members whom I have sent or received private messages. Maybe a connection of some kind ??

I think the scumball just picks a bunch of names off the user list and sends the pm, then another bunch of names, and so on.

Marc had hoped to be able to get new software that would prevent a new member from sending pm's until they are approved by the admins. In the meantime, hopefully folks will recognize this type of attack and NOT open the links..........

You guys need to download, Malwarebytes, Anti-Malware. It will help along with your anti virus program, Also get the program, simple backup And put all your file on disks, So when you do get a virus and cant get rid of it. You will have to reformat your hard drive and then put your disk from simple backup in and your back in action.

I got the pm and opened it up. Sweet no more viruses for me! I had to buy this program, but it said my computer was going to be faster and no more viruses. Plus I get all these offers for Viagra and othe stuff happening while I surf the web. It is pretty neat.
