Hey, you're seeing this message because we detected that you have Quicktime on your system.
Quicktime lets you watch movies on your computer.
There's been a security problem with Quicktime this weekend and bad guys have been trying to phish accounts exploiting the security hole.
You can protect yourself by downloading this patch to your Quicktime--it only takes 30 seconds. - Tom
its in the usual "box" that he sends his msgs in

Is this one of those front page post that he generally puts? If so I didn't get it. Are you guys talking about a blog post or some sort?

I think that only certain people go it... people who myspace detected already have quicktime... otherwise the problem wouldn't affect u if u didn't have quicktime.... but I'm still kind of on the fence about downloading the patch though cuz there just seems like theres been way too much craziness on here lately.. lol
