I think the user posted warnings on the post cover it :) I'd rather leave it up than nuke it.

Huh?!

Sorry, I think I was a bit confused by the "Errr, nope, won't do jack" reply you gave there, Illia.

The guy posted a fake mod with a trojan in it on the MAIN forum regarding WoW.

Sure, there is a couple of posts telling people not to download it, but they're posted after the post containing the link. So people could click the link first and then read the rest of the thread after it's too late.

You nuke people for saying bad words, but not for spreading virus via your website?

Priority issues?

It's better to leave it there with the replies warning of the trojan so that more people will read it.

Locking it might be a good idea, or editing out the link, but why nuke it? That just leaves the door open for them to repost it.

Don't get all soft on me Alla admins. Smiley: tongue
