LOL! Wash, upgrade your IM. just like AOL at some point, there was an exploit. If you have, then you are now reached a new level of spam via certain sites ( you or someone on your network are becoming a naughty boy.. hehehe ). IM knocks. Block the user in settings else the next one may become your remote desktop connection and frequently have funnier messages. ( sorry, this thing is too funny, LMAO! )

I am using Pidgin IM, v2.5.8 I was actually on IM with someone I know, but how this came onto my screen still buffles me, as I believe they did not send it. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

Wash, someone on your network has exposed it to sites that do such and there is an exploit somewhere. The funniest part was your description, I still cannot stop laughing..... :-) 2009/7/8 Odhiambo ワシントン <odhiambo@gmail.com>

Aki, On a Unix box, clicking on the link isn't harmful, and I use FF 3.5, not IE - another level of safety:) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
Ai Wash, don't get too serious, have a sense of humor bwana. We have all done many and such things in our stressed absent mindedness, I sometimes forget where I placed my toolset and end up looking for it, cursing I should've tagged it with an audible device. Its our nature. Have a fun day. :-) 2009/7/8 Odhiambo ワシントン <odhiambo@gmail.com>
