Ontalink ICQ Hoax #1

URL:C:\windows\TEMP\s3vvoe7n..html

URL's description: Don't download version 3 ICQ, it has a virus in it. Forward this to all your friends. ICQ98 is ok


Ontalinks webmaster has received zillions of these lately. Just look at it... notice anything odd? Well first it points to this chumps original local C drive, and is therefore not a location on the net !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The chump who originated this one pointed the source code to a file on their own hard drive
.

To the best of my knowledge and belief there never has been a version 3 of ICQ.

Advice
1. Never download a version of ICQ from anywhere except from www.icq.com
2. Don't forward this timewasting URL and message.............................................

Mirabilis wants to charge for using ICQ. You just hit your forward key and send to all your friends you know. It will record you as protesting against charging, it is an automatic program. Just sending it on, records your no vote


If you forward this message, he only thing that will be "recorded" is that you have made everyone aware that you are a chump!

It's in the Home Page of Mirabilis: They're studying the possibility to charge $ 0.06 for each time you send messages. To vote against this, give FORWARD on this message. If the number of FORWARDS gets to 3.000 millions (that is the number of users, nowadays, they will not go on with this idea). So... VOTE AGAINST!! GIVE FORWARD ON THIS MESSAGE!!! 

Forwarding this message is another vote that your a chump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
