www.patchnow.net

Before you actually go to the above link out of curiosity, please read on.

I've just re-installed my desktop PC from scratch and I'm using MSN 7.0 which is a beta version. So I just got this popup box which looks terribly legitimate and tells me that I have a critical security vulnerability which I must patch immediately. The only exception is that you are using WinME.

Anyway I'm 99% sure that if you install the "security patches" from that site, your computer will surely be installed with a backdoor/keylogger/bug/worm/parasite/virus etc etc.

Searched for info about this site on google and yahoo already but so far nothing about it. Which brings me to conclude .. DON'T DOWNLOAD THE FILES THERE PLS!!!
