Subject: READ THIS IF U HAVE M3 VERY IMPORTANT

this is from Udogs MB posted by doobie i think------



i just saw this post over at rampancy.net regarding M3, i don't know if it's true, but wow would it suck if it was...

begin c/p
---------------------------------------

Rumor is that Myth III is infected with the recent "nimda" virus. SunStyle's post at MWA informs and warns:

I just Had couple of friends complaining about nimda virus... i end up checking my computer and i'm infected by same virus... I talk to a couple of other friends, they all say their computer is fucking up! I tell them to run virus software, they all got same virus! Guess what we all have in COMMON? We all have installed Myth 3 full!

Also if you goto here http://www.mcafee.com/anti-virus/viruses/nimda/default.asp?cid=2444 it says:
McAfee.com has noticed an increase in the prevalence of the Nimda worm during the week of 10/29/01 - 11/2/01!

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the myth 3 was realeased 2 days b4 demo? And demo was release on 10.31.01! So That would explain the sudden increase on this virus
This is definitely not something you want to ignore. Coffee and ax have confirmed the virus's presence on their hard drives. This doesn't look good.

It's too early to conclude whether or not this has affected all or most Windows users, but a recall for Myth III could be in order if this proves to be more than coincidence.

UPDATE: ax has sent us an image that shows the nimda virus on the Myth III CD. This is not a scan of ax's hard disk, but of the CD-ROM itself.

end c/p

Coggs just ran a virus scan last night and found a virus on his machine, but the foo didn't even check what or where it was... anyhow, the whole thing looks pretty ominous..
