Have you had it?...I bl**dy well have!

I'm now using the laptop...Own PC dead as a door nail!


I got a message telling me that the following link would allow me to view all those that have blocked me on messenger.

That will teach me to be nosey!

Be warned folks

Hard luck, you never know what you are getting into. Why do people want to do such things?

This isn’t some chainmail bullshit, so read carefully.
There is a new online threat that you should all be aware of. A bunch of websites that promise to “show you who blocked you on MSN” have surfaced on the Internet. If you come across one of these, do NOT provide your MSN username / passwords. Leave the website immediately.
They:
1. Email all your contacts, advertising their “services” or/and send them links to viruses
2. Add your email to their Spam lists or/and sell it for profit
3. Login to MSN when you’re not active(i.e: you are not chatting with anyone or you’re offline), and either msg all your contacts with virus links, or advertise their “services”
If you receive an email containing a link to such websites, do not click on the link, just delete it.
...and change your password.

This is the link DO NOT TRY IT!

Never open a pop up that you get like that as a general rule of thumb, no matter tempted you might be.

And unsolicited emails that don't come from a known/expected contact should be binned without reading. Some are harmless, some might put a little spyware on or copy out to all your contacts, but others can kill your computer.
