virus?


Question Posted Sunday January 1 2006, 4:09 pm

i heard, from a friend on myspace, that there is a virus spreading on xanga. i dont know if its true or not, but i'd like to know. it could be just myspace people who want more people to be fully myspace people, and no xangas. but im not completely sure. does anyone know?

I think your friend might be talking about the "exodus owned you" thing. You should be fine as long as you have antivirus. There are also viruses on Myspace, like the "potato" thing mentioned on the site news here.

No matter if you use Xanga or Myspace, you should be fine as long as you have antivirus (make sure that it is up to date!) and you don't click links that you aren't sure about.

It's probably a lie. Just don't click on any weird links.

Accually both myspace and xanga get viruses. On my space it can be lke porn on someone site or it wont load or like one time all these poeple's display names changed to some weird phrase. On xanga it might be sometihing like pages not loading or freezing.

Both sites have viruses. I am more torwards myspace. I haven't got any viruses from it. Xanga messes up my computer. Some Xanga sites; the ones with viruses will freeze your computer.

both myspace & xanga have virus's spreading on them. for myspace, you can clearly tell when someone has a virus on their page, because 'porn' comes up & you can't visit their page. for xanga, if you're on a site & it's taking a while to load er if it freezes, then that site has a virus.

-hope that helped!♥
