QUOTE = VIRUS - WATCH OUT FOR LINKS!

Beware of links from users you do not know - I have found a few comments left by "unknown" users that appear to be "quotes" which include a link below it.

I am suspecting they are viruses - only because the users have no profiles set up and the same quotes are being posted on several posts.

I would suggest "blocking" the user by clicking on their icon and selecting "block user"  and then deleting the posts to protect your contacts.

So far I have spotted these types of posts by users: jdplay and yewen2

Be safe and careful browsing :)

  1. Glenn, You really need to make your page private and delete those on your friends list that do not have a picture and the ones that you haven't spoken to in God Knows When. It's really a safety precaution

  7. I hear you Johnnie! :) Microsoft has secured their OS system with Security Essentials - haven't had a virus in 4 years - this was just one of those nasty jobs that I spotted right away. I hope you are well - YOUR VIDEOS ARE AWESOME! My partner loves what you do!
