I don't come by this forum very often, so I was surprised to get a PM notification today. New member MannInBlackk sent me the following PM....

Hello, friend. There are viruses' activities from your computer in last few days. Strongly recommend you to check your computer. You can find a report about your computer's security and solve every problem with it here: http://www.check-pc.net/detected/hotroddougie;John Colomy;OHV;Chewy;Leec4ceThank you. Forum member.
Since my last activity here was back in June of '09, I seriously doubt I have anything to worry about, at least as long as I don't click on the link he sent me.

Moderators, do your thing.

Got the same message. It's going on at Underground Corvettes also. I know they are getting a handle on it over there

I got that one the other day as well, seen he was banned so I deleted it.

Figured one of the mods would send something out if it was for real.

Actually, I've heard form a PC tech friend that these links and similar pop-ups out now are actually spreading a new virus.

Guess they're just too lazy to grab spray paint like normal vandals.
