Ive been told that if you get a friend request from j_neutron07 do not accept it. it contains a virus that will frak up your 360 and computer. This has not be confirmed by microsoft but just be on the look out. Better off not chancing it.

I've never heard of a virus being transfered on Live so it is probably just a rumor. :-?

It's a hoax, and has nothing to do with X-box live.

I would be so stoked if this were true.

Not because I have anything against Microsoft of XBox, but we haven't had a good creative virus strike in a few years.
