LJ Virus Alert

OK.

Two character journals I know of so far have gotten a message like this.

Hello sosirius, i saw something like this at [a href=http: //art-attack.com /users/ andy21/ 928523.html] random LJ username and nonexistent post here[/a]

Don't Click The Link. Especially not if you use Internet Explorer; it links to a virus.

Bah humbug. Nothing's safe.

hey thanks for the warning!

... were they both Sirius journals?

Because my Sirius journal got the same thing. None of my others did.

No, Fleur's got one, Tonks's got one, and a few others. But none of my other HP journals got them. So... just... yeah.
