Title: If you use MSN, watch out for this
Post by: DuVeL on August 24, 2005, 01:26:35 PM
Hi guys.
The other day I was using my MSN and I got a message several time from someone saying this:
w0000t, you have to check this out! //www.warezddls.com/download.php?type=flashmovies&id=1636
The message keeps coming up if you didn't press the link and download it.

Don't download it guys. It's an exe-file. I didn't trust it because I had this from someone else aswell and I blocked him right away from my MSN.

If any of you have children that use MSN, ask them if they had the message. I have Googled for what it was but haven't found anything yet. I'm saying this because Lara from Norm was sending it to me and she didn't knew she had that problem.

If you still use MSN, you deserve it.
