WARNING! Possible Virus Alert!
« on: March 01, 2008, 10:04:55 AM »
If any of you guys receive a link in your Messenger saying:

"This looks an awful lot like you!"

...followed by a link from "hostsnake", DO NOT CLICK ON THAT LINK.

It is a virus that will mass mail itself to everybody on your contacts list.

That is all.

It seems to be spreading VERY rapidly.  I have gotten various forms of this message from no less than TWELVE contacts on my list.

Please folks...message the sender if you're not sure what the link is.  Most times, they don't even know a link was sent, as this particular worm does so without your knowledge.
