I am afraid that there might be a virus on the other side of that link. I got the same message. I don't know them, so I am definitely not clicking on it.

The "Engrish" is always a dead giveaway.

The probably wanted your account info so that they could use it to spam the board. The might also try the same account info to gain access to your email accounts, too.

Great as if land rover owners needed another headache. I figured it was crap with the moderator having a generic name and no posts.

Default It's on some of the other forums also

If you open it ... will try to force you into purchasing a disk cleaner ...just do a hard restart to get around it ..
