But a few minutes ago I found a thread by a spammer. It was only on here for about 20 or 30 minutes, but it was read by 12 members in that period. It was about a Windows automatic update problem and how to fix it. This spammer instructed you to disable your firewall, or place a bunch of sites that they showed in the post, in your "trusted" list, then start clicking on a bunch of links to "fix" the problems. I really hope no one followed these instructions because I would hate to think of what would be happening to your machine after you had disabled your firewall and visited one of these sites.
We have been dealing with some strange spam lately, links to por-no sites, selling everything from medication to phones and computers, and some just rambling on about nonsense but this is the first one I've seen that was malicious and could damage your computer.
