I don't know if this is true, but I got this warning from a friend just now, and thought you guys should know.

if somebody called tribe_5 @hotmail.com adds you to your msn dont accept it. Its a virus. Tell everyone on your msn becau if somebody on your list adds them you get the virus too. Copy and paste t s to everyone AND FAST

I've heard these for loads of emails. I don't know if it's true or not but I don't want to take my chances.

Only invite people you know to your buddy list. If you aren't for sure and just don't add. You can easily add it later if you find out that it is one of your friends. I am really cautious about stuff now. I had a really bad sasser and don't want to take any chances.

I don't mind if anyone adds me to their list. All I ask is a good reason. Peace.

I highly doubt it's anything, since you can't really send a virus, just by opening an MSN message, and I doubt you could get the virus just by having a friend with the guy on their contact list, but I'm not sure, so I figured it's better to be safe about junk like this.

anyway, hope none of you get it.

you cant get a virus by just adding people, people just dont want other people to have any contacts on MSN.

''Tell everyone on your msn because if somebody on your list adds them you get the virus too''

That makes it painfully obvious this is just a chain message, designed to make people spread it. I've google searge about it, http://www.google.se/search?q=tribe_5+%40hotmail.com+&hl=sv&lr=&start=0&sa=N , and it appears that this have become spread out all across the world and now have reach us Wormers. Starangely enough it's often mentioned in girlish pages.

To make sure it's not true, I actually added tribe_5 @hotmail.com some days ago. And voilá nothing happened, as expected. So there, it's just a big phony
