just searched symantec for this do you have the virus name ????????? if i type in pavlo88 i get no results ive even tried symantec hoaxes with same result hope you dont mind me saying jo jo but please dont shout (writing in capitals is tantamount to shouting )

sorry didnt realise my cap lock was on thank's for that i dont know it's a hotmail adress i'll email you with it im havin trouble getting the whole email over

Most messages telling you to pass this on are hoaxes. It looks like this is just another hoax. http://www(.)zyra(.)tv/pavlo88(.)htm Regards Ron www.genealogyprinters(.)com

Looks like its yet another hoax - found a few references to it on google, including this one... What to do about a message received from a friend, like this... Message I have received from a friend :- EMERGENCY!!! If pavlo_88@hotmail*com adds you to your MSN Contacts, DO NOT (I repeat: DO NOT) add it because it's a virus that takes all ur computer details. PLEASE tell everybody on your contacts because if somebody on your list accepts it then you get the virus too!(copy and paste this into a new message because some people do not read forwards!) Don't just forward it Yes, it's probably been sent to you by someone who is your friend, and they have sent it in good faith believing it to be true. But that doesn't mean it is true. It just means your well-meaning friend has been fooled by the HOAX! You probably had no intention of adding pavlo_88 at hotmail to your MSN contacts, assuming you had a set of MSN contacts. But you might feel tempted to forward the message on so as to warn other people about the dreaded virus. Well don't! It's not a virus, at least not a computer virus, but a hoax. If you're worried about viruses, have a look at the antivirus software and the ways of avoiding a virus mentioned here. But don't worry about the message from a friend warning you about an 'emergency' regarding Pavlo88 and MSN Contacts. How this works is simple: Some people are fooled by the message; it's an easy mistake to make. Then they forward the message to their friends. Most of their friends aren't caught out by it, but a few will fall for it and forward the message. It's an implicit chain letter! Chain letters and other hoaxes which persist by getting the recipient to 'forward this message to everyone in your address book' etc, are psychological viruses in one way of thinking about it. So, to sum it up: Don't add pavlo_88@hotmail*com to your MSN Contacts, and Don't forward the message on!

oh i see ive never had anything like that in my mail box before anyway why do people do that it just sturs up a fuss for nothing

thanks for mailing the address jo jo thinking bout it ive had that same message sent to me via hotmail warning me not to add to my msn contact list i just deleted it you can see if its a hoax or not by going to www.symantec(.)com/hoaxes or www.symantec(.)com remove ( ) s or look on google for urban myths im still trying to find it

ok thanks let me know what you find if anything

Jean I get that annoying message regularly. However I read that in Germany a paeodophile handed himself in to the police when he received it. David
