[technology taskforce] Skype Virus: Need for an Advisory

[Sébastien Bachollet]

Hello all,
Good idea.
Yes I did received this link from the Skype account of Maureen.
It will be useful to explain how to avoid it and maybe also what to do if it
is to late and you already click on the link?
All the best
SeB
