hey guys just giving u a heads up there is a scam going around with the friends list. trojan horse link. it steals ur account. a bunch of people in my server got hacked this way and lost all their account and all games they downloaded. it looks like it has an attachment so i didnt click on it. but if u see some strange links just ignore them. it might not be ur friend.

When you say links do you mean the ones that let you join somebody else's game? Because I clicked on one of those several times yesterday, and it seemed to do nothing... but then a while later AVG detected a trojan in some Quake 4 file. It healed it, and nothing has happened to my Steam account, but it'd be a hell of a coincidence if it isn't related.

Thanks for the heads up anyway.

yeah im not real sure, because u can make a link look like just about anything. so it may very well look like ur friend joined a game and then when u click it u get fubar.

Well, nothing happened, so whatever. I'm assuming it doesn't happen like two days from the time you click it. :rly:

Don't click links unless you're 100% sure of where they may lead period. This applies to every situation.

Madcow is right, I just clicked it and had to reinstall Windows. I lost all my files on all three of my hard drives and my Steam account was stolen.
