Hi all..

I dont know if this is the right place to post but..

I got this weird letter from a mr. Martin Benes -pyrobenescz, where he asks why he cant download from www.vpyro.com, and thats all.

But when i click the link it sends me some other place, and i might think its a hacker or someone that wants people to get viruses.
Heres the letter (with the link):

Looks like a stupid redirect script. This guy is not English, and couldn't understand how to post.

One thing I hate more than anything is people asking questions that are already answered.
Please, read the forums and pinned topics before asking obvious questions.
Thank you.

I shouldn't worry about getting a virus - this is a typical example of a SCAM mail message, as you can see, the link name is "Vpyro.com" and the link is anything but, usually just holding your mouse over a link will display the link in the bottom of the internet browser window, that way you can easily see what its all about before you click it.

NEVER click on links contained within messages or email unless you know the person sending it to you is reliable - I would just delete the message and forget about it.
Virus's can get to your PC if you click on a link in a message that takes you to a nasty website, or you download an infected file

Ensure that you have antivirus software on you PC (or mac) and that its active to receive regular updates.

Thanks for highlighting this
