Whats with all this virus alert nonsense to my private message box? Has TLO been hacked or is it some form of sponsership. Is it just me who has this message? This is the message signed by, The Forum Team Dear, TbirdX! A virus alert was noticed on your computer. We highly recommend you to check your computer and perform online virus check at our site immediately: Followed by a link I'm not going to click and I suggest if anyone else has this they don't click it either.

Don't open this link! Criminal elements try to get ppl on their sites to perform a virus check. This check tells you that your pc is full of viruses and that you can only fix it with their own anti virus program, which cost a lot of money! If you use their checking program it's normally 100 % sure that you will get viruses. So don't trust them! Use your own well known and up to date anti virus program like Kaspersky, Gdata, Norton , Fprot or so on and never trust mails like this! _________________ Bye... GD Don't call me names...!
