Could you explain, Molly162, how clicking on a post could do such a thing?

I don't know at all about that specific post Molly clicked on...
I will say as a webmaster, I get IP numbers from people just clicking onto my website. They don't have to register or sign in. Just enter any of my sites. I know what day that IP visited, how many files were viewed, if they downloaded anything, etc.
So if the webmaster of CNV is 'not nice' (I'm just speculating)...well, enough said.

As far as I am aware a script was placed on the CNV site which allowed access to my computer via Internet Explorer.
I am no expert but from my experiences of the site there are several messages which are tagged with code (Not the PGP in the EOM messages).
I first had a problem around the 11th of January - same date as money was taken.
Someone hacked the CNV site and replaced a graphic with an image of a static clock. (This has been covered in part 1 fo this forum) I had no problem until I clicked on the post link. I noted that some of the links and messages contained the same coded jargon as that produced by the doom virus. I could be wrong but it appears that the message was tagged with an active script, in some way, to the image set on the hacked page.
Of course the person or persons involved could have gained access prior to the message i'm concerned about being placed but I doubt it.
'mama told you not to steal' contained a warning which also included the words 'prepare for thy doom' there was also a threat of some interior decorating and that they hoped we would all have fun reformatting our hard drives. This was clearly directed at anyone using the site.
If you have found any files on your computer tagged with arabic or symbols of it's type - you have been hacked.
I discovered a host of nasties in my language settings for example.
