I was in a MSN chat and this came up, I do not know if the chatter put it up OR if it is a phantom invasion into my space.

I did not do as it asked...

I am just a basic user and have limit knowledge of the PC/PCnet...etc

Could you please put some light on it for me...

Thanks...

appears to be picture links

however, I personally have never heard of photobukket.com, so I wouldnt open unless you actually trusted the sender.

The correct name for those links is "PhotoBucket". It's used for Myspace comments and such.

There is a loss of trust between sender and I,
they know the workings of Pc and net WELL!!!!

I did a small search and another site had a member say this...


MSN possible virus.

""Seemingly innocent picture links sent but as 'photobukkets.com' - all the rest looks normal, and even ends with a little smiley face and angel face....!!!

My friend sent me it, and clicked and luckily said error and didn't open.

But he said he never sent it, and a friend sent him something similar earlier and he opened it, and it asked for his MSN password.

Be warned.

Can't find anything on tinterweb for it, but I was fooled and I usually steer clear of links/folders sent via MSN!!!! ""

too many bogus sites out there to take the chance and assume that sender meant Photobucket (which is a well known site)

I would not open
