Deleted A Link: Don't Click on Any Season 4 Links

by ZakAlami | 18:30 EDT, 25 Aug, 2008

Hey Guys,

Someone posted a link to a supposedly 1st episode of season 4 which we all know that won't air until September!

Curiosity always beats the hell out of me, that's why I checked the link, and to my surprise, it turned out to be a very malicious virus, and now I have to live without my laptop for some time (Hopefully).

to make sure that yoy guys won't fall for this as I did, I deleted the link, the site hosting the link was jitty.us, I guess.

Good day everyone!

Thanks for letting us know. Good luck. I had no idea when season 4 was going to start. I almost clicked it until i saw your post.

So, I got rid of the virus, and now I'm too worried to click on any of the links!The guys at sidereel must change the policy around here: no one should be able to add any link until it's tested.This user who posted this link could actually do the same thing for other shows' pages. -- Safe surfing everyone! avoid suspicious links

Wow thanks for the warning. Glad that some people are so considerate and whoever put that link with the virus must really be having a SAD life

This site has been banned from SideReel, so please remove any links you come across and thanks for making a note of it! If you see more spam sites like this, please report them to us on the SideReel team at spamsucks@sidereel.com so we can ban and mark them for removal. With these spam issues, it seems most sites that ask you to download something should be avoided as it's probably spam, so links that lead right to the video content are safe. Thank you!

I definitely will!

what you mean like the links where you have to fill out a survey before you can watch a single episode?

"what you mean like the links where you have to fill out a survey before you can watch a single episode?" These are just scam/spam sites.. Please report them to spamsucks@sidereel.com Thanks!!
