Just received the infamous Land Rover Forums virus warning
Disco Mike-
I just received this same message this morning 02-14-2010. Looks like the bas**** is still out there. I've forwarded the message to you for your review. Good luck.

Disc Mike,
Me too! there are two messages in my PM. Don't know if you can see them.
Latest from 'Admin& Moderator' who shows as a new member.
I won't delete them yet but, of course, won't repsond either.
He asks for a receipt but I just cancelled that.
Cheers,
CockneyJock ...
