Twice now have had this message. Tells me my MS is corrupt and I need to upgrade.

Obviously spoof but why, both times, have I got it while on PPRuNe?

I also got a similar message whilst scrolling through the What Aerodrome thread a couple of hours ago. I closed my Browser and did a virus scan to be on the safe side. All appears to be well so far!
