Hi Guy's - As above really - anyone had a problem with it tonight - All my contacts have been e-mailed with a stupid note saying something like I hope you Happy everyday !!! problem is it's gone to Work, Fostering people and everyone one on my contact list basically !!

WTF !! What can I do with it !!

 

Sounds like some malware or a virus Si. My advice would be to change your MSN password and then run a full virus scan on your PC mate.

 

On the case Mate - What a bugger !!!

 

Sounds like you've got Malmare on your machine. Download security essentials from here http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/secur...s/default.aspx it's pretty good, and free.

 

Thanks for that Rich I scanned using the PC Tool that I have and changed the Hotmail password, also downloaded the link you gave me and scanned fully with that, cheers

PC Tools didn't pick anything up but the new one did pick up a medium risk nasty

The only thing I can think of suspicious lately, was an e-mail I had the other day from a company called Hermes Home Delivery, saying I had a parcel to track and to click the link and enter the tracking number.

I didn't think much of it, as I'm waiting for a parcel anyway, I clicked the link supplied and enterd the track number which came back as not recognised - I just left it from then, as I thought the parcel was enroute anyway.

 

just a small note m8, when you change your password use the on-screen keyboard, if you have got a keylogger on yr pc the new password can be detected, using the on-screen kb it cant.....

 

Thanks for the pointer MadMerlin - nice one

 

No problem m8, glad to help
