A number of people found keyloggers on their computers after they clicked the russian poetry site link. A few people actually attempted to translate it (the poem is about eating shit, apparently) and are regretting it. We are advising people to go to pack.google.com and download the free Spyware Doctor and run a scan, also running a scan via Housecall if they don't have an installed antivirus program on your computer.
i'm so sorry about all of this, everyone. and, okay, i lied, since i have no time to do anything similarly helpful there will be just one link: to
so basically, 1. download a solid antivirus program; 2. check any hotmail accounts you have to make sure they haven't lapsed, 3. change your passwords and set a security question, and 4. don't click on anything you're not sure about.
love you guys. more to come!
ETA ONE THING: this happened to me because i, stupidly, wasn't monitoring which email addresses were linked to my account. i don't think this is unusual, with longstanding ljs, since I hadn't used the hotmail account in question for years and years and years; but even though it's pretty normal behavior, it's (obviously!) not good. so it's worth it for all of you to check and make sure you aren't giving a vulnerable email access to your journal: http://www.livejournal.com/tools/emailmanage.bml

Of course now I'm spoiled - for three days I read it straight thru, every spare moment I had, then for two days I cried (pretty much literally) because I didn't have more.

A friend and I both had/have the virus "Virtumonde" on our computers, and the only link I can think of was this. We visit similar sites and everything, but since I -know- we both clicked on that link and whatnot, I'm guessing there might be a connection.
So, here's a site that explains how to get rid of VIRTUMONDE (because it is a sticky bitch of a virus) in case anyone else has it: http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=74407

I'm reading it on pdf, btw. Brilliant person, whoever thought to do that to your fic *pets*
Anyways, I just really really REALLLY wanted to praise your Chapter Nine. I loved your explanation for the whole snape, remus, sirius, james incident with the whomping willow (could I have picked a more complicated way to explain that!? :P), and your James, Sirius, and Peter animaguses WERE FRIGGIN BRILLIANT!
I can't remember how long its been since I laughed that hard.
...Okay, I can, but not at fic. I SWEAR!
