Guest guest Posted April 5, 2000 Report Share Posted April 5, 2000 Hello everyone, I just wanted to pass on that I was sent the Trojan virus that allowed someone to get into my account and send many people (341 to be exact) a hyperlink to a porn site (which happened to also contain the virus). Luckily, AOL caught this problem, placed a security block on my account and helped me to fix it. HERE IS THE WARNING! Do not send hyperlinks or click on them, you never know if you have this virus and by sending a hyperlink you could be spreading the virus. Just send the web address and let the next person plug it in. Also SCAN FOR VIRUSES about once a week. It's a harmless process that will make sure that this doesn't happen to you. Be sure to update your virus program about once every 6 months. I have not sent any hyperlinks to the list but please everyone scan anyway, so that this doesn't happen to you! -Jenn (who spent 5 hours fixing the problem) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
