Hello.
I haven't been writing on this blog for 100 years, or something like that, and I do not expect people to read this.
This part is about keeping your MSN-account safely. MSN Account = LIVE Account.
Okay, I'll start off by explaining a bit about what you shouldn't download and visit.
There's some services on the internet, that'll tell you who've blocked you!
Some sites like those:
* http://www.blockstatus.com/msn/stchecker
* http://www.funfull.com/msn-block-checker/
* http://www.checkmessenger2.net/en/z/check-messenger/
The one I was looking for wasn't there. Anyways, my point is that you shouldn't use these services.
Why? Because they simply save your account info, and they'll probably just use it to spam messages to all your friends, without you knowing 'bout it.
So, keep away from those. If you want to know who've blocked you, please use google to find an application, that legally check the stuff.
I think that "Pidgin" works for it. It did once, when it was called GAIM..
That was part 1.
And now, I'm going straight for part 2.
Securing your chats and so on..
- When someone writes to you:
"Look at these awesome pictures!! http://*msnnamehere*.coolpix.com (or something)", DO NOT FUCKING CLICK IT. Don't ever, EVER, click links like that.
I realized that many people have been fooled into clicking those links, installing some "fake application" that will install "some codec that will help you see the pictures".
The application that you install is a fucking virus. (Check under the security part about fake codecs).
- Examples:
* http://benedikteln.piclooks.com
* http://razzyugo.piclooks.com
* http://kat_smukkeste.piclooks.com
MSN-names.piclooks.com . These were victims of the virus..
They spam everyone when they log in, and their msn will be bugged up, and they maybe can't open their MSN anymore.
If they don't have a really nice Anti-Virus, they can't protect themselves.
SO, MY TIP FOR TODAY:
Do not download any of these "codec packs".
Do not visit *.piclooks.com
Do not ever visit stuff like piclooks.com
Sincerely,
Pvpede

Found your blog searching for piclooks.com. Seems I found what I suspected, thanks!
Actually did the same thing as Vepreculist; searched for piclooks to make sure it was a scam. Thanks!
I did much the same, but I'm checking to make sure what other measures are out there to confirm that the problem has been fixed if you do click the link...
