Seeing as SOME PEOPLE - *cough*Grad&Ploo*cough* - are silly, I just thought I'd warn you people about links ending on .pif or .scr. They are viruses. This is a typical message you will receive: X says: omg this is funny! <URL GOES HERE>/cute.pif It will ask you to save or run the program, DO NOT. Even if you click the link, you'll be safe, as long as you aren't stupid enough to actually run it - *cough*Grad&Ploo*cough*. How to remove it if you got it. Not sure if the remover on the site works, but perhaps.. This post was edited by Jacen Aratan on Mar 06 2005 10:08pm. |

Better idea: Never accept anything unless you are sure of what it is on the Internet. |

Blame Plookoon, he got it first and sent the link to me! But he's always sending me stuff so I trusted it. Not your fault though Plooeh. _______________ - Proud padawan of Kueller. - We really are at the beginning of it all.
