Got an email from the ATV forum about my computer having a virus , is this on the up and up? Never received an email like this from a forum that's why I'm asking. The email is from Kurtymann-Curtis Collins!
Thanks

I got the same message. Just want to help out on the forum-not be subjected to this sort of thing from this guy.

do not click on any PM that says there is a virus on your computer. there is no virus on your computer, until you click that link anyway....

We have just upgraded the forum to the latest version of VB and we are also adding some additional features to help prevent this. I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

haha, that would be a good one to add! New users will no longer have the ability to send PMs until they have posted 2 messages or have been active on the site for at least 15 days.

Sweet sounds good, maybe we can weed them out before the spam starts a flying!
