Hi all.
I just sent a note to Pete... but he is offline at the moment. This COULD be a false alarm.....but better safe than sorry.
I just had my McAffee pop up a virus warning when I went into the SimV News forum and clicked on the "thread image size" topic started by Fozzer.
Got TWO viruses stopped...... VBS/Psyme and Keylog Briss.
Thought someone should know fast....particularly those without up to date virus software set to monitor the internet connection.
best,
..................john

I just tried and nothing came up John. I'm running a full anti-virus check of my system just to be certain though

John - it must have been a file on your system. It would seem sometimes these files can lie inactive & undetected in your system for a while before they become active & are then picked up by your anti virus. Happens to me all the time even when I'm not connected.
Thanks for the report though. Important to keep an eagle eye at all times & I'll keep a watch out in case you are right.
There is attempted malicious acftivity every day these days.
