X-fire Virus?

[Fliko]

If someone by the name of j_neutron07 wants to add you to their list don't accept it. It is a virus. Tell everyone on your list because if somebody on your list addds them you will get it too. It is a hard drive killer and very horrible virus. Please pass this on to everyone on your list. We need to find out who is using these accounts. Sorry for the inconvenience. Right click on your group name of your buddy list and click Send Message to all. Copy and paste the message. No joke.

Is this true?

Same..Its fake. How can adding a person on your list be a virus?

I was wondering that too, but, I never knew that you could take full control of a system via rootkit, just wanted to be safe.

Unless there's a glitch where it allows the accept / transfer of files via adding a person, I don't quite see how this is possible...

 

[Computer5k]

It's fake, not possible to get a virus from someone on your list adding someone to their list. Probably also impossible to get a virus from adding someone to your list.

Probably just some guy trying to make a scare. One of those chain mail things.

I got it from some guy on my buddy list named Sasha Mitchell... username kaiknutz

Obviously he's from this forum, or else he wouldnt be on my list.
