virus /spyware


Recommended Posts

I received a gaim mesg that said "take a look here http://www.buddylinks.net/night_raptor/" from one of my buddies... i clicked on the link and it took me to this site that seemed like a game page... after a few min he posted a warning saying not to click on that site and that it could have been spyware or a virus... he's using windows and i'm using gentoo... so do I also have that virus now?.... I dont seem to notice any weird things... i cleared my cache and everything after clicking it... it didnt seem to load anything...

click on that link at ur own risk....

If it is that yellow-backgrounded thing (is "backgrounded" even a word?) then you are safe.

It is an ad. Spam. Lies. Deception.

Most of the internet scams are set up to catch the simple-minded and the Windows users. (I will leave my comments at that, without elaborating on any possible connections) ;)

thank goodness... my system is in pretty bad shape with all these broken ebuilds lately... dont want a virus on top of this....

I am not even sure if wine supports viruses and worms...

I think you would have to install IE and OE first. ;) lol
