Anyone Else Getting This?

[🪦 Colt45 ●]

Hey guys, The past 2 days ive been getting IM's from 2 members of this board and they both say the same thing. "Hey, Can i upload this picture of us to myspace?" and then there is a link. I dont think either one of them would do it intentionally. But its getting pretty annoying. I asked one of them about it and they had no idea what i was talking about. Im thinking someone on here hacked them, or maybe its just a coincidence? Anyone else get these IM's?-colt-

This is an OLD virus, been around for years. If you get an IM like this do NOT answer and do NOT click on the link. It gets into your PC and it does the same thing from your PC. People will get an IM from you without you even knowing it, and you'll send viruses to other people.

I've been getting IM's from a member here too a few times over the last week. Something about being able to view profiles and other info about members.

I knew something was wrong, Dean never talks to me. <img src=\"http://forums.NIGHTOWLpro.com/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":lol:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"laugh.gif\" />

GOD DAMN! yesterday morning i got a message from someone i can't remember the screen name but it was sometime horror related and they had a pumpkin avater. i thought it was someone from the board. it ask me if it was ok to post a pic of me with them on their my space page. so like a dumbass i clicked on the link which went to no where. anyway i never gave it a second thought. last night when i got home i had about ten I.M. windows open with that same message. wtf now my buddy list is gone.

Maybe contact aim if they have a service department of sorts... They might be familiar with similar viruses.Also, quite a few things pulled up when I did a google search.
