Spam PM's?
 

I have 2 PM's wondering wtf.

I took the tt out of http because I am pretty sure thats a bad site, at least firefox tells me, and im not dumb.
I tried a search to see if there was anything on this, no luck or I didnt use right words.

Important message from the forum administration!

That's kinda strange. Got virus protection on your computer?

If I were you, I'd scan your computer using your own favorite virus scanner. Maybe try others on-line, like McAfee has a free scan you can do. Established virus scanners instead of using a security tool that you're not familiar with.

Avast & Avira & NOD32 are 3 others that have free download virus scanners. Any computer-geek friends can probably tell you their favorites too.

someone's also posting some rather unnecessary links that should be removed asap.

EveryOne Pay Attentions To This Post
 

I ve repeated this before and I say it again..do not link on those type of posts..we do not send out post's nor any links for you to click on so use your heads and leave them alone..don't get curious about all the sex links..leave them alone unless you want to get your sex infectiond virus :D :D

I took out at least 40 links in the last 24 hours alone...

^ I of course left them alone, it was obvious what those links went to so why click them, I just thought for the sake of the site I'd let someone know they were there so they could be removed.

Members Please Watch Out About Links...That's Why Im So Hard On Them Being Put In Sig
 

Thank You..sometimes I leave to do things and dont come on for a few hours..but I usually catch them most of them..I am glad we have you members who also like there web site here and help protect it..

Thanks Again...Angelo

Not an actual link, and if you're dumb enough to copy, and add the hTTp and go to the link, you get what you deserve.

Not a virus. How would a virus on my pc send me random PM's in this forum, lol.
Better check the forum software, and how members are able to sign up.
I got another one today, this one from Board_Admin

Obviously it's a spammer who wants you to follow his link.

These don't sound like valid messages actually coming from one of us moderators. Besides, how would we be able to see viruses on your computer.

Angelo,
Do you know about any way for a normal user to send PMs that are spoofed to look like they come from those? No user-names match those. I hope that if anyone wants to sign up with a new username like that, it wouldn't be allowed.

Yeah, I pretty much figured it wasn't from an admin or mod.

As a moderator, I can't really check where that message came from. Maybe Angelo (the real admin) has enough privs to figure it out?
