The Cerebral Dump

LOL... There is this new spam that is going around that I even received from the domain "www.windowsupdatenow.com". By the time I was able to go and check the domain on a secure machine (non windows) the site was dead. They were informing people through this email that they would keep receiving these reminders that their windows machine is infected. That they should go to the site and auto update their windows software. I laughed at this, as virus deffinitions (keeping them updated) have NOTHING to do with your Operating system software. I knew right away this was a scam!

Please people... Don't EVER fall for these scams! If you use windows ALWAYS use your autoupdate feature that is in your START menu for windows. Never use third party links or websites. Don't even go to the sites!!! Forward the emails to your service provider, and let them do the dirty work. It's what you pay them for.
