weird message on win 98

[visualuser]

A guy got a message this morning about a "direct dialler".

It said" You have not run direct dialler software for the last few days. Would you liked to run it now?"

Does anyone have a clue what that is?

Thanks.

Hi visualuser;

A search on Google returned 1 hit on "direct dialer software". It takes you to the member area of an "Adult" site.

Ed Please let me know if the sugestion(s) I provide are helpful to you.

Don’t be surprised if you get a huge phone bill from a little island called Vanuatu, in the S. Pacific.

Really???

I need some other opinions. This guy said it just started appearing when he booted up. There was a ddialer program in his msconfig. I turned it off and now it doesn't do it. The dialer program had two ll's like this: direct dialler. ??????

Someone told me to go to this site:

Any other suggestions....

I'd do a search for the dialer and delete every reference to it.. Matt Wray

I recieved an email in my hotmail account and it was for ifriends (or something like that) and that direct dialler crap appeared in various places on my system... i deleted about 5 shortcuts... haven't seen any in awhile... think it's clear... last time I stupidly opened strange email... heh.
