tw25rw Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Ignore any well meaning chain mail about viruses. If you use windows, download MS Security Essentials and Malwarebytes. If you *must* use internet explorer, get v8. Preferably use another browser. 99% of your malware threats gone in a single reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welo Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) "Generally speaking, heeding the advice you receive in anonymous forwarded emails is not an effective way of coping with Internet security issues." All true, however, if somebody writes you who has a rich relative that just recently passed away, and he/she needs to bring his money out of the country, don't be rude and cold and offer your help!!! You will make tons of money, trust me! http://www.419eater.com (I know a bit off-topic, but somehow related, category 'don't believe everything you read') Edited March 19, 2010 by welo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
