I think I have a virus on my myspace?

Question

When I go onto my myspace it doesn't let me change my status and mood. When I go to the mail center everything goes down. Some places on myspace won't load at all. Once I went on my friends myspace on my computer and it does the same but not to him on his computer. What do I do?

Answer 2

You need to email Tom, and explain to him, what problems are occurring.  You may well have been tagged with a virus that was attached to your page. Anyone coming to your page might be infected.

I have found a virus control that is a Trojan virus attached to a page. If you find a pop up of a virus control, do not open it.. click the x and let it go. It will download into your computer and it is hard to clean out.

Answer 3

It sounds like your computer has the virus.  Try a good virus program and fix the problem.  

Answer 4

maybe its your computer and you need to get those cookies or whatever cleaned up! i have been through that before too.

Answer 5

It sounds like maybe you put something on from a bad web site. This may suck.. but delete everything on your myspace and start over. Then find a different website to get your backgrounds and stuff.
