A very dangerous computer virus is currently circulating, and it is being spread through compromised email addresses belonging to some of our members. They get your email and then send you a notice in the name of someone you know and respect, saying:
When you click on the link, your computer will be compromised, and you will be infected. I have received this from other individuals in the PCS, such as Brady Smith, Jeff Hookway, and Rick Duffy, among others. The first indication that these are malicious emails is that the sender's address doesn't match the name from which they are being sent.
Be careful out there; it's a dangerous world we live in.

I'm wondering if you still remember them, or at least a couple of them. I probably should have sent them to you a little bit earlier. Anyways here they are - I mean these 10 pics http.xxxxx.xxxx.com/
