I have been noiticing this happening for a while now, and I was wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences.

Well, about a week ago a person on my list changed their name to I Got My Period. I didn't think very much of it, because this person always has something kind of crazy as their name. Then he next day someone else on my list changed their name to I Got My Period and I noticed a pattern.

I have Plus! installed and I noticed when the people change their name it goes back and forth from the name they have in the
beginning to I Got My Period for about a minute. So say if the name is Hottie, it will switch between Hottie and I Got My Period back to back, almost like 2 people are fighting with it.

When you go to the convo window with the person, their picture is still the same and so is their font. But I don't think it is the same person.

This has happened to 6 people on my list. I talked with 2 of them, and they both try to send me a file over file transfer. I think that both files were called funny stuff and were 20 kbs big. The first person told me that the file was a picture of spongebob stoned, but I know it couldn't have been a picture because when they sent the file transfer request the icon was the one used for applications.

The second person told me that it was a program that would change your name to I Got My Period and that it was really funny. I still didn't download it, but again it was an application. I couldn't see what the ending of it was because MSN doesn't show you it.

I really think that this program is either a virus, or it is a program that allows the hacker to get into your account from their computer and spread the virus, but it somehow manages to keep your picture and font and such the same. I don't know how it manages to do this, and I could be wrong but the whole thing seems really fishy to me. I'll post the log of the convo with the second period person and see what you all think. (Without the names of course.) I'm just wondering is this seems fishy to any of you, or if you have been experiencing this it's self.

Me: bullshit

Period Girl: try it

Me: why the fuck would you want to install a program to do that?

Period Girl: its not a program
Period Girl: its just like a picture file or something

Me: fuck you, it's either A) a virus, or b a hacking program that when you excute it lets a hacker into your system or some shit like that and they start fucking around with your computer
Me: it's an application file

Period Girl: whatever that is
Period Girl: i dunno
Period Girl: i just send it to ppl

Me: if it was a picture file i could see the picture
Period Girl: i dunno what it is
Me: virus scan it for me

Period Girl: how?

Me: right click and then scan the file
Me: but you probably won't because your the same bitch as yesterday on a new account trying to send shit to me

Period Girl: okkkkkkkkkkkk
Period Girl: it doesnt say scan
Period Girl: 1 sec
Period Girl: dont decline yet
Period Girl: no i dont know how to scan it

Me: why should i accept it?

Period Girl: you dont have to
Period Girl: you can save it to your computer and then send it to ppl for laughs
Period Girl: its pretty funny
Period Girl: especially if you send it to a guy

Me: see the thing is i don't want to send people viruses for a laugh

Period Girl: its not a virus
Period Girl: we have about 5 different virus scanners on our computer and none of them detected it

Me: uh huh and all those scanner's don't intertefere with each other?
Me: wow, you're lucky
Me: what are the scanners?

Period Girl: norton anti virus

Me: that's one

Period Girl: theres one that came with smiley central that i downloaded
Period Girl: theres one thats one our computer that came with it
Period Girl: thats 3
Period Girl: not quite 5 but its enough

Me: hum... see you don't get a virus scan with smiley central... you get spyware from those things
Me: and microsoft doesn't come with it's own virus scanner.
Me: it might have came with norton...

Period Girl: i dont know....the only thing i do on the computer is msn so i dont know that much about them

Me: oh
Me: you should learn more about
              computers
Me: it could stop you from getting hackers in your system, and then have them try to send viruses..

Period Girl: maybe
Period Girl: im too lazy....lol

Me: lol
Me: anyway i g2g
Me: cya later

Period Girl: bye
