I would like to notify that I recieved a spyware while open a mail in NG. Beware, there might more pranksters out there. The spyware had green shield and red shield logos, the one in windows defender. I would like to warn others of this and advise the NG users to install a anti-spyware program. I am infected and had to undergo 10 steps to get rid of the virus/spyware. Beware when checking your mail!
Also...
Do you belive that there is an any way to stop this malicious matter?

I am not lying, this is a serious matter. Email pranks within a webpage means sueing and many complaints. I wrote this board to warn others

Yes the email was from drangonjet, he denies attacking me, and I belive that he had a virus that would encase the virus to others when sending a email.

It's so easy to spoof an email address.
Don't open it if it's from a weird address.
