    Sorry guys,not a myth.A lot of people are going to have their day ruined tomorrow (3rd Feb),as apparently 300,000 pc's already have the Nyxem virus on-board,waiting to pounce.Just don't open any attachment from anyone/any company/any product you don't know.Above all keep your anti-virus up to date at all times. :eek:


    Update.Apparently the infected count is now up to 600,000.

    They won't tell us what the site is for some reason

    Probably to stop people pinging it all night and using the bandwidth
