Title: Heads up people, steam related.
Post by: Koray on November 12, 2014, 06:41:37 pm: Hello lads, I just wanted to inform you that there are players out there who got infected by some sort of virus wich will send you a link wich is like this:

PLease note that most of the people sending this in your friend list (who were a long time friend or a new one who you trust) dont know that they are sending it, its an auto message that will try to get the virus on your computer/steam aswell.

Thanks for reading it and have a nice day :).

I did open it, but it downloaded something fishy which I shredded with my antivirus.

Post by: Ed on November 12, 2014, 07:09:02 pm: That means, if you clicked the link, it downloaded the file and if you opened it, it would infect you.
I have pretty good antivirus therefore not worried about these sorts of things. Don't get why people click stuff without reading. Specially when it downloads a file as a picture, when it is a malicious program.

Post by: Timmer|Lv on November 12, 2014, 07:25:23 pm: Just headed to the forum to write a post about this

if you clicked on the file and downloaded it's okay I think,but once you run you get infected.I myself downloaded the file by accident

good that I have my panda antivirus.
