You get a VIRUS Scanner program thingy (I use Norton Anti Virus) and it will tell you.

 PLEASE tell me you didn't click it.


God no! i did not know what it was. what does it mean?

As Midnight Frost said, it most likely takes you to download spyware or adware. Just like the name says, it spys on your computer activities or places ads. It can be worse than a virus at times.

Midnight Frost Posted at 10:36 pm on Aug. 27, 2005
I think its some sort of spyware/adware. Just go into your computer and delete the stuff from the system folder.

And lesson to learn? Don't just go about anyhow clicking on links.

You know you have one when your PC freezes, crashes, and otherwise acts more stupid than usual.  
  If you have one, you throw the PC away and buy a Mac.

 

 Becuase once you do that the programs crash, not the computer...


Programs don't crash often, if at all... But if they do, it's better to just close a program and restart it.


GEEK!

Edit: Or if you're more technologically gifted, download some form of Linux and install it over Winshit XP.
