JHuJHu 03-31-2009 08:22 PM

i've clicked it before. and i've learned my lesson. I never do it anymore :P

Culture_Vulture 03-31-2009 08:48 PM

that's why I filter my MSN lists lol.

I have one account for day-to-day uses; and I only log on when I need to;
whereas my second account is only for handpicked non-stupid people.

BoneThug 03-31-2009 08:57 PM

i've noticed they are getting a lot worse then they were before. im always off line and get messages from random people a cou0ple times a week. i just (x) them all though sometimes i wonder if someone is really trying to talk to me.

TOPEC 03-31-2009 09:48 PM

let seem, first it was the "hey is this u in the pic", then lately it's "hey these weight loss pills work awsome."
funny thing, the latest one about weight loss was actually sent to me from fat people on my list.

AzNightmare 04-01-2009 12:07 AM

Hints on how to tell it's bogus.

It's all writtened in one message. Most people I chat on MSN press enter after each sentence, meaning they send like 3 or 4 messages
Most of my friends would start with a Hey. or something like that. If I reply back, then they will proceed to send me links.

That's how it works for me anyway. lol
Good luck.

^I thought there was no known virus for mobile devices?

Or have I been living under a rock?

hotjoint 04-07-2009 08:43 AM

Berzerker 04-07-2009 09:25 AM

My new response to those idiots is... "How are you liking the virus you idiot. Email me when you fix it cuz I'm blocking your dumb ass."

Berz out.

I get nudged and msg when im playing on my 360.

the worst part is when your fighting the boss in Resident Evil 5 then all of a sudden at the bottom of your screen it blocks of what you're doing and says" Hey i lost some weight..."

Simplex123 04-07-2009 06:17 PM

hongy 04-07-2009 07:11 PM

There are viruses, but mostly pretty harmless, and wiping a handset + restore is easier anyways.
