Exclamation NOTICE: Phony 'Admin' PM's..
PLEASE NOTE..

A number of you may have received phony alert PM's from a "LadyXAdmin" warning of a virus and inviting you to check at a website as shown below... Just ignore.

This is a spammer that was deleted this morning while doing registration approvals...

Do NOT respond to the suggested link as it was reported that it will launch a trojan response..

Sorry...
Steve

Ignore my PM, too. Sorry I didn't scroll down the threads far enough before I pm'd you! (In the words of that great philosopher, Homer Simpson, "D'oh!")

If anyone would like a list of free programs that will keep all but the most retarded (drugS like) computer users' computers clean, I can provide a list of software that I use to keep people's machines running better than new.

At least the last guy sent out porn, not that I got any of that either. I'm starting to get a complex.

There was another one of these registrations overnight... I've blocked the Email addresses these are coming from which should stop them... But remind anyone who gets these to ignore and delete...

Sorry...

What do you mean?

If you are talking about bloated software like Norton, Mcaffee or Kaspersky, I'd agree.

I repair computers all the time and have a pretty good idea on what software is crap.

Steve, can't you put new members on some sort of restricted access until you approve them as real?
