Re: Beware of hacker bothering CD users
I use a combination of spyware doctor, spybot search & destroy, and Norton Antivirus, so I wasn't worried... On the other hand, it's just a good idea not to accept any files from a stranger. Who knows what they have on that file? (What are the chances that he is sending something especially "choice", knowing that it will do more damage than more benign virus/spyware.)
Anyway, I just thought I would like to give you guys a heads up. Especially since the attack on CD forum shortly ago. I would hate it if someone actually downloaded something from random people claiming to be from this forum, got their computer damaged, and never come back because of that.
