Newbie's gone mad....
This may not have anything to do with anything................... however, I find it quite odd! I know it most likely wasn't anyone that uses this forum regularly, but, it makes me think that the possibility that people stalk this forum for 'newbies' might be possible.
I have NEVER gotten a virus so nasty, EVER! I am a newbie to internet marketing, but, I've been on the internet from BEFORE the internet............back when there were BBS's. So, I'm not internet illiterate!
Anyways, I had announced that I was a newbie on this forum, and the next morning (this morning), I was on this forum, and I got a virus that none of my regular viral protection recognized. It looked like it came from windows itself. It was a scan that popped up. It started listing all these worms, trojans, and viruses that I had. Actually.............. 93 of them to be exact. So, I let the 'scan' run. Then, it said that I had to activate the software for only $59.99. I thought it was strange, and I couldn't recognize the url that was asking for money. So, I got on the phone with windows, and they told me this has been a problem for about 6 months now.
If any of you get this, there is a free fix. CALL WINDOWS SUPPORT!!
Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
