    I just clicked on someone's link and gave my computer a trojen virus

    I've seen other girls commenting on other ppl's link saying they got a virus from other links.

    Do you guys think someone is purposely posting these... how do we prevent from opening bad links!!  arrgh

    Hi Mr. Bee - wow thanks for your quick response-!!  do you monitor weddingbee.com? 

    i just clicked on the morilee posting from today (but i think a lot of girls also commented that it says "virus" when they clicked).  i assume if it's morilee it's not really virus

    but i have seen other girls' posting where people clicked, and said "your link just gave me a virus"

    Well you put the word "virus" in the title of your post... that'll usually catch my eye. :-)

    I've edited the morilee posts with a link in it to mention that several users have reported virus issues with that link.

    I actually tried going to the official Mori Lee site yesterday, and my computer stopped me to warn me of a potential virus. I wonder if their site was hacked or something.
