Beware raid groups that use ventrillo

[Kayo]

I feel stupid for what I'm posting but.....L 2 interweb

My thoughts exactly. Its one of the 10 internet commandments!

#4 Though shalt not click links recieved through email or chat if you can easily go there yourself.

And for the love of the crystals dont ever click any link in an email claiming there is something wrong with your game account!

don;t click on penis enlargement emails either!

ventrilo is safe and does not have viruses. you probably either clicked on a bad link or got the virus off something else.

Ventrilo is not full of spyware, not at all.

Change your passwords to this account, email, facebook, etc.

I know this was very stupid of me, But i got into a Raid group the other day and said they will only let me join if i use vent.

I was sent a link to d/l it so i did (I know im dumb) it was full of viruses, spyware and everything else u can think of.

Edit----------------

no not a specific d/l linke they sent me a google link and i d/l'd it from the number 1 result.

So im guessing either ventrillo itself is full of spyware or they just made a dummy google result page and sent it to me? eh w/e it took a couple hours but my comp.y is all clean now so w/e lol

So about that email from the Nigerian Prince ...

I've used ventrilo for years, and there's no such things as malware or spyware in any of the versions I've had.

hmm so i got a email back from ventrillo support found out i was sent to a correct page and d/l'd the official version of vent. it was just the server i was connected to when i tried to log in.
