mIRC '6.14' - 05/02/04 06:42 PM
There's a website being spammed around (at least, I've seen it on DALnet) that is telling people to download mIRC 6.14. The website mimics the design of the real mIRC website, however, does not contain the side navigation bar and only contains the US download mirror links.
The site is http://www.mirc614.ca.* (domain removed to prevent people being infected).
I posted this incase anyone, like in cases before, was wondering if this was a real update or not (like when that fake 'patch' was released), and also because of the convincing design of the site.
I'm not a fan of blowing these things out of proportion and if it wasn't for the reasons above then I wouldn't post anything, nor do I intend to for every infected URL which crops up now and again - you might not even ever see the address spammed, but incase it becomes some big thing where lots of newbies are confused, it doesn't hurt to post a little something
Happy chatting!
Regards,
