    Default Virus Warning - Scam

    Hello BPN Community,
    I just received PM's from members to let me know they received the following message:

    A virus alert was noticed on your computer.
    We highly recommend you to check your computer and perform online virus check at our site immediately: http://antivir-labs.com/dennis handa;allanrube;Rocky Sharwell;David Jernigan;Byron Holston



    THIS IS A SCAM! Do not follow the link!!!!


    We are actively investigating this attack on BPN and it's members.

    I got this also and am suffering from this! I think that it would have been very responsible of this site to have sent an e-mail warning to its mailing list rather than just post it here.
