    Alert! Skype Virus

    Well I'm not sure if I'm right, but this seems like it's fake and the 'patch' might be a virus.




    Virus or no (I mean the 'patch', not what the message says)? I'll google for more info...

    EDIT: Oh well it's not that bad - http://share.skype.com/sites/securit...are_alert.html

    It's just trying to get you to download some Anti-virus program according to the above link. Still, don't be fooled

    What people will do to sell their products nowadays...

    It's fake you idiot. Someone made that account. It was just plain stupid to put a registered copyright after it. That shows to me basically that it's a hoax.

    Ops, I think I misphrased that...(I'll edit the first post...)

    I meant I thought it was a virus in the link, It was saying that you had to download a patch, so I immediately put this up since I figured that the 'patch' would be a virus. I didn't click the link at first, I didn't think there was any point. I just clicked it after finding that it was harmless. (The link is annoying, it doesn't let you close a window and keeps prompting you to buy some Anti-virus stuff)
