You weren't hacked, it's a virus and it came from someone who emailed you. It's a script that is attached to email and once it's opened, it emails everyone from your address book. No one was in your computer. |
I just don't get why people do things like that.

This thread has reminded me that I've been wanting to close my Facebook account for some time since I rarely go there.
Does anyone know where a "close account" button is on Facebook? I never put much info there anyway and kept everything "locked" where only friends could see it. But still why isn't there a easy way to close the account? Or am I just not finding it? |

This is why I cancelled my Facebook "account"...
Heard way too many of these stories in connection to Facebook site... :( I am back to the "old fashioned" way of emailing my friends! |
SIL had that happen. She finally opened up a new e-mail address and let us all know by e-mail from the new address. Don't forward your address book from the old acct. to the new one. Good luck.
(I'm going to go cancel my Facebook acct. too) |
Sorry to hear that you are having this difficulty...It just isn't right that people get away with this stuff.....
|
*hugs* - I HATE computer problems. Do you have McAfee or something like that? Why don't people have better things to do that break into other peoples things.
