O.P. Huh?  'Block-checker' Gone Crazy
Sorry if this has already been posted by i've been forced to talk to some poeple on my contact list through email because those who have that stupid block checker thing infecting their comp  it just keps sending every 2 secs and is impossible to talk to them at most they get a letter or two in before it comes up again. and all three of them say it only does that when they talk to me?? and i was wondering if the problem was on my end??

Please read this thread.

There is a virus posing as a block-checker. That thread speaks about it.

Hack, hack, hack!

Well, if you don't have it then you can either block your contacts or tell them to clean their computer. :P

Either there is a newer version or it's corrupted...

Please send them This Link.  The marketers of Block-Checker claim that they removed the advertising component in the latest version and provide the above instructions for removing it.

Those instructions were already on the site when this malware was created. It is nothing new at all. But above all, they seriously lack content.

Please read and follow these instructions instead:
