Bizarre Windows Live Messenger Link....

    This is probably nothing at all, but a friend of mine was using MSN Messenger 7 today and she was contacted by this guy who gave her this link:

    www.windowslivemessenger.biz/msn/msn.php?s=sCTchw&id=7418&profile=xxxxxxx@hotmail.com

    Now obviously i cannot reveal any email addresses here, but the xxxx was instead her email address and upon clicking it, it sent her a .scr file which freaker her out because she thought the file contained details of her account.

    I investigated and found that it did not contain any details of her account but instead was just an MSN logo....:rolleyes:

    I'm not very concerned about this, but i am wondering has anyone else has experienced this before?:confused:

    www.windowslivemessenger.biz ---> A website with seemingly no puropse! :confused:

    It does have a purpose. To be the most pointlessly flashy site on the net.
