Default AOL users please read!

If this is more suitable for the PC board, then gladly move it. But I'm warning anyone with AOL. Don't open any Email that says Britney Pics! or Britney Nude! or anything similar to that. There is most likely a trojan virus in it. I just found this out about(according to the sent times) 9:23. This is the second time something like this has happened. This time, the thing sent out around 600 emails in a few mins AOL said! So the woman gave me a new password and I looked in the sent folder and there was a $hit load of emails(Britney Nude!, etc..) sent. Be Warned! Be Cautious! Listen to Me!

It's just a Link(s) to some site, but I didn't click. I already knew that there is no actual Brit. Pic(s)

YOUR MAIL HAS BEEN RECEIVED BY A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATOR AND HAS BEEN FORWARDED TO APPROPRIATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES WHO PROSECUTE INTERNET MAIL PORNOGRAPHY.

HAVE A GREAT DAY

If it's just a link to a site, then all it probably does is use IE's ActiveX controls to launch a virus on your comp, or do something similar with Netscape. If you use IE, it's generaly a good idea to totally disable all ActiveX settings, cos they're a security nightmare that Microsoft can't patch fast enough.

Using opera or mozilla, all I get with those is a popup which shows me exactly what the controls are trying to do to my computer... heh...
