If it doesn't appear on vBulletin.com, vBulletin.org or the Members Area, do NOT ever trust it, regardless of whether it appears to have come from someone you would trust

Um, ".... you are still hosting the illegal vbulletin on your webhost. Please do not be alarmed that this is not against the law ....". That makes no sense at all (how can it be illegal, but not against the law ?????). I would have deleted at that point

(well okay, I would read the rest just for a laugh ).

I know plenty of people who fall for scam emails and enter their bank or paypal details on scam sites.

I have a worldwide solution to this problem.... Instead of trying to get the virus coders/scam emailers/spam advertising--ers (is that a word?!) and ban them from the internet .... Personally I would ban the people with the stupidity to:-

A. Follow a daft link from there email

B. Not run at least some kind of protection on there computer

And last but not least

C. Subscribe to a product and then accept an !!!official!!! (yeah right) patch for there software from someone who is blatantly not from the company they bought it from.

Lack of knowledge I accept. Even full of knowledge and half asleep first thing in a mornin ... Maybe even full of knowledge and pissed as a fart...

But I hate stupidity!!!!!! LOL

i would ban myself all the noobs that spread the "email chains" of all kinds... ya know, real stories about success that you will receive only if you send that email to 100 people...

i would also ban everyone that call at Microsoft to tell that their product is awesome... (ppffft lol)

Smelly feet, too. Let's ban everyone with smelly feet!

There ought to be a rule against that, too... right?
