I've got Norton Antivirus and it didn't alert to anything either. I ran a full scan and it didn't pick up anything but the normal tracking cookies. At least I'm at work and not on my own computer! :lol:

I ran a full system scan with AVG and it came back negative, but you never know with this crap.

I got one too. I have what I consider a good anti-virus, so I opened the link, and it didn't try to download anything. It was just a white screen with thank you written on it.

But, I'd suggest nobody else open the URL just in case, and because it's really not worth opening anyway.

Peace,

David

Just got a PM from a "new" member - "jikoms4" joined 4 days ago, no posts so far?

But sent me a "thankyou" (for what I'm not sure??) and a link (to where I'm not sure??)

The link Looks like a trojan to get malware into your pc, DONT click the link in the message!

(I have modified the url of the one in this message to stop it working I hope!!)

regards

Mark Pilkington

I got 2 also, I was foolish enough to send a pm back that said I don't know what you are talking about but I guess you are welcome for whatever.
