Did you get a friendship ball today?

The friendship ball messages.... I just have to say be careful with it... because I started to copy & paste the code it gave... then about the 4th guest book, I wasn't previewing it... & what popped up was NOT what I pasted... it was some video... Not knowing what it was... I clicked to play it... & being April Fool's Day... I should have known better!!!! because within 5 seconds or so of it starting... my computer locked up & then shut down.

THANKFULLY, though, when I restarted it (via safe mode, then normal) it seems nothing is wrong...

I currently have my Anti-Virus software running a scan right now.

Anyway, I thought I'd warn you... be sure you preview it no matter how many times you post it!

And NO this is NOT an April Fool's Day joke... I WOULD NOT KID ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!!!

I am NOT going to post anymore "friendship balls"... not going to chance it... $hiba is too dear to me! :) :)

Doesn't mean you can't... just be careful! :)

  4. OK, sometimes when re-posting things over and over, you will get a weird video... I do not know why it shows up, but I normally just delete it, recopy the code I want, and start over. I do not think it has anything to do with the friendship ball one in particular. This video has been around for sometime. I don't know if it is a virus or not. I have a virus protection too and it never shows up as a virus. The one that pops up for me is 2 guys sitting in like a car?? Is this what you got. Sometimes it happens I think when I get trigger happy on the mouse and click before ready.. But like I said it has never shown to be a virus, and has been going on, much longer than just today, so when I go to re-post something like a string like that, I just make sure that it is the correct html code before hitting submit...
    Hope this settles your mind... Maybe take it up with multiply... I don't know... Love and Friendhsip, lilangelwolf

  6. yes it was... it was Ross "The Intern" from the Jay Leno show... at least that's the only place where I've seen that guy. & he did have a dog on his lap... but it locked up before I could view much of it.

    Hmmm... I wonder I wonder...

    I ran the scan it didn't come up with anything. I just wonder. LOL
