if its an IM we have nothing to do with it. also, we have no members by that handle.

users register here creating user names, just like anywhere else. i'm pretty sure there are folks out there with an LS1 that aren't members here

IM has a recent history of transferring virii. You can safely IM that person and tell him he is transferring virus related links.
