It may be old news, I was informed this weekend that several of my clanmates were infected either via steam messages from people in their friends list or from emails sent from those people due to a virus/trojan.  This malware hijacked their steam accounts when they were directed to a link titled "5 deags" or something similar to that. so

Yall should know this :headbang: don't FRICKEN CLICK ON LINKS!

Le Bumpsauce, I got a similar message to this one from a guy whose account was compromised last week while playing L4D, so it looks like they are at it again.

This also happened to a friend of mine...linked him to a page that looked like Steam, he logged on, and got his account screwed. Most of the time if you're logged into Steam already you won't be required to log in again...that's generally a giveaway for fake sites.
