WARNING: Potential MSN Hijacker - Blockoo.com
Jun 19th, 2007 by mark
A while back when I first came across Blockoo.com, I thought they provided a very good service: How to check who has deleted and/or blocked you in MSN. Well however, it is not all as it seems with Blockoo.com. I refer to this post http://benetleong.com/2007/05/21/warning-blockoocom-msn-hijacker/ at Benetleong.com. Please read it before using Blockoo’s service as it is a potential security risk.
If you have used Blockoo in the past, please be advised to change your msn password.

Until such actions are done, this warning stays. Users should not wait until damage is done before protecting themselves.
Thank you.
