None of the forum administrators would likely know you have a virus. Please post the username of the person has sent you the PM informing you that you've got a virus.

I suspect the PM you are receiving is not legitimate and is not being done by anyone that really is an Administrator with CF (savewave, ShanMan14, Bigtoe, cor98vette, IBAnders and Troy Roberts).

Talk about phishing scams!

IMO those links should be disabled or deleted so no one accidentally clicks them.
