I’ve received around 10-15 im’s through a good friend on yahoo about this. He didn’t send them and he’s getting them too! A few days ago he created a new yahoo id to see if it would stop. No one else but me has replied to him about it so I guess his other contacts maybe tried it or didn’t care enough to ck it out? Like me … I contacted him but didn’t ck it out!! I was stupid enough (and have NEVER ordered anything like this) to fall for it and signed up for the 14-day free trial!!! I didn’t recived the pills until day 15!! So I “refused” the package. This has been going on since 2/27/09!! I had to file a dispute with my bank as the company charged my checking a/c 79.95 and then 85.90 plus shipping costs!! I’ve been through pure hell e-mailing and so on to resolve this! Thanks to my bank they credited it all including 5 $35.00 NSF fees it created!! The company and/or sites(all different names at that!) has credited me back the 79.95 but still waiting on the 85.90 which is coming soon so they say. Long story I know but watch out! Since they said it was on the Oprah show and I got it from a reliable friend on yahoo I fell for it. Don’t call anyone “STUPID” for misunderstanding this issue as I’ve seen a few uncalled for comments here. We’re all different & just because we don’t “know something” doesn’t make us DUMB! Learned a very HARD LESSON HERE!! And I know about snopes.com! Go figure???

Run a safety scan from http://safety.live.com and google for malwarebytes antimalware that will clean your computer up. Also change your msn password.

Blaming your operating system for your incompetence is just foolish. This virus will not run without administrative privilages, the blame is solely on you.
