    VIRUS WARNING: PMs from ForumsSupport

    I recieved a PM today, as I'm sure many others did, from a user called ForumsSupport advising me to visit a particular site and download a recommended security tool. If anyone else got this same message DO NOT FOLLOW THE LINK.

    MODs, can you remove all traces of said user before someone is lured in? The package offered is actually a virus and a malware application that is a real nightmare to remove.

    This has been apublic service announcement.

    Brad already added him to the sticky to get rid of these guys Lee but still a good warning when it goes to a virus link
    Ask a simple question, never receive an answer these days

    I've contacted their webhost to get the site taken down.
