	Newest lame virus trick? Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

I almost never get spam but, recently i have been getting multiple e-mails with this message:

"Dear friend , use this Internet Explorer patch now!
There are dangerous virus in the Internet now!
More than 500.000 already infected!"

From what it says is the return adress:

Microsoft


I have gotten 6 identical e-mails like this. Obviously I am not going to be dumb enough to download this, but I was wondering if any of you know exactly what is going on with this? Does the virus there use your e-mail to send out other e-mails to people. Anyone know what is going on?

Don't download it. It's a virus, can't remember its name though

"Don't download it. "

I haven't and won't, that one is obvious.

I've gotten it as well in one of my Yahoo! e-mail accounts. Microsoft does *not* send patches and whatnot via e-mail.

you don't need virus software to get rid of the thing unless you were dumb enough to open that email

I imagine that if Microsoft did e-mail updates, the updates would at least have correct grammar and sound even vaguely professional. Certainly they wouldn't be in Engrish like what Shi quoted...

Microsoft will not call you a friend.
Microsoft will not use exclamation points.

thank you, and have a nice day.

Q Cubed would not talk in such clipped sentences.

hi,

Q Cubed didn't begin with hi, so it can't be Panag in disguise.

have a nice day

DL!

And it can't be Panag, since ICBM didn't do the spaces before the commas. Real panags would say

DL? Maybe, but not Panag's.

Er, sorry, but I'm dense. Are you laughing at the very idea or admitting to being a DL?

QCubed = !Panag;

Maybe their just reciprocals. Or as my calculus (cal-KOO-loos) professor might've said, ressi-PRO-kals. He was from India, and would occasionally put the wrong stress on different syl-LAB-les.

Reciprocals? You mean one of them likes to have one on top? That seems like a rather private matter to me, and not pertinent to the discussion...

I don't know about that, I'm sure Q Cubed has made at least one inane post in his time on poly that would prove that statement false

hi...

Q Cubed != Panag
!(QCubed == !Panag) ...

Q Cubed = !Panag
--> unresolvable CONST declaration conflict

panag is not korean.
q cubed is not jewish or israeli ....

have a nice day..
