See a thread regarding this:Quote:
This is a new and recent trend thats spreading where a buyer contacts you trying to purchase your laptop/desktop, etc and wants you to run FRAPS on your PC to benchmark it. They kindly give you a link to a registered version of FRAPS and tell you to run it. DO NOT DOWNLOAD! This will install a trojan on your PC that is also a keylogger and attempts to get your paypal password etc.I was contacted in several forums about this by members wanting me to run this program, dont fall for it.

Wow, nice find - I can't possibly fall for that even if they tried, as I've already got my own licensed copy of fraps!
Who's got the last laugh now? hahaha

I hate thief scum. I would just kill them if it was permitted. Thiefs in the middle ages were publicaly executed. That had some deterrence.
