Today, April 27 2006, an email was sent out under formula90's name in a mass email to all members. One also came out from myself, SassySue09.

With the email from formula90 DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK in it. Delete the email and run a virus scan on your computer asap!! This email is not from him!!

The email from SassySue09 is a legit one. If you do not receive the email from me let me know please!

Remember do not click on the link in formula90s email and also remember to delete it and then run a virus scan.

Thanks everyone and sorry for any inconvience that this may have caused you.

Sue, sorry for adding on to this, but the email came to me from "webmaster@theformulasource.com" and did not include either yours or Jon's email address.
SassySue09
That is Jons address from the site but he did not send it out. Mine will have the same addy on it too since I didn't send it out there my email address but through the site itself.

The one that supposedly came from him will have the subject line of: VIP forum and include one line of text and a clickable link. That email is the one that everyone needs to delete.

Mine will have the subject line of: TFS EMERGENCRY PLEASE READ! and several lines of text.

Also for everyones information and to help, with the virus scan the names of the viruses that might come up are: Hacktool.IE.Exploit and Download.Trojan

Sorry again for any confusion.

I figured something was up. When i logged into the site about 3 hours ago, it kept wanting me to download some strange file, which i kept denying. Since I run a powerbook (Apple) i'm not at all prone to windows worms or trojan horses, but ANYONE WHO LOGGED IN EARLIER TODAY PROBABLY INADVERTANTLY DOWNLOADED A FILE called from this link:
http://traffmoney.biz/dl/loadadv613.exe <--DO NOT CLICK ON THIS LINK, ONLY PURPOSE IS TO SHOW YOU WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!

search your HDDs for "loadadv613.exe" it's spyware. You would do well to delete it immediately.

I did not get the email either, but a few weeks ago I visited the site, and my Norton Antivirus went crazy with a ton of virus alerts!
