Hi all, A number of members have reported receiving PM's containing child porn. I have all the information to take to Proboards and the Police.
If you have any such message please delete them NOW. If you have had one, please Message me so I know how many of you there were.
Thanks all for reporting.

Those images will stay on your device until someone finds it and then you will be in serious trouble. So it would be safe to use it rather than to be sorry.

Just remember, we didn't do the crime. They did. We are all innocent of any offence.

UPDATE:
I have just had the Police here and the verdict is that although awful, they are computer generated images and as such not a crime. The information has been forwarded to the relevant department.
Sorry, and you know we are one of the best spam free forums out there.
Thank you.

Thank goodness they were computer generated (absolutely vile but a little happier knowing it wasn't real), thank you for all your hard work and having to deal with all this added pressure. x

here is the message i sent to users, could be of some help
*** *** ***
be careful and delete your cache indeed: very few people know that, when you're browsing the internet, everything is saved on your computer "without your consent" for a while for instance, when you opened today's porn/pedophiliac message, everything was saved on your computer, texts, images, etc. = it is automatically saved in the cache example: i did not save the first image of the message but it appears in my cache: this is an example of a tool for firefox (MZCacheView) = i do not know/remember how it works with chrome, ie internet, etc. (sorry for bothering you if you already knew that!)

Yes Tom, like Gabor says, is best to delete the message so as not to expose yourself to the rot, and stay safe.
