Over the past couple of days Twitter rolled out its most recent update, which is the ability to send a DM to anyone - even if you don't already follow them. And you would expect with *any* type of change, people moan... and I'm quite dumbfounded as to why people are moaning about it?

Are you constantly getting messages from your followers on Twitter saying that you're sending them these fake messages, that're usually like "you ar famous now haha *facebook link*" or "Someone's talking about you *facebook link*"? Well a lot of people think these are caused by a virus on your computer. Well to be honest, I highly doubt they're spawned from viruses.
