Email virus making the rounds I think.

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

@Steel

You're probably right. But it is much more fun to speculate about a conspiracy.

hmmm.... maybe they should call it 'bagle.TLR'!

ive not gotton anything like that, but then, im sitting behind two firewalls an AV, another AV and a firewalled router, plus a little setting i like to call 'The iris'(stargate refrence) that locks the IC down.

Oh just for the record, my AV is coming up saying i have the virud VBS_tradelink evertime i start, but ive scanned it twice since it statred saying this and i cant find a flipping thing! could be my sisters fault though, im getting more that 15 new spyware refrences PER DAY when i scan with AA 6!

any ideas?

Wolfy - It could be spoofed; it's hard to say for sure.

Arania - Check the "Run" folder in your regsitry, I think I posted it around here somewhere, and see if it is running anything at startup. Also check the msconfig "Startup" tab, and check it also. Look for anything unusual.
