well, it wasn't msn. rather, a no good idiot who lives in a basement with his mother, and has nothing better to do with his life than to generate a virus.

Haha, right.

They don't know who they are messing with, I can get rid of anything I get and then some :)

The virus should at least be a challenge to remove.

Oh wow! I saw forums for the msn one, but nothing about aim. Then I need to watch out for that too!

Oh, it's ok :)

I'm pretty decent at flushing out stuff. I went in and removed everything and the backed up my files. My computer is running well again!

You should do a search on the virus, and try and figure out a patch. Or, you could defragment you hardrive to cleanse it out.

I hope that works.

I got one recently from what seemed like a normal link in somebody's IM. It said something like "help me fix this pic" and, given that I know the person, I clicked it. It didn't even ask me anything - it just messed up my buddylist and shit. D: Luckily, my brother is a genius so he fixed it all nice and pretty again.

Well, it's good you got rid of it. I think it's going through all messengers except yahoo!

Your brother is a good man :) I know how to get rid of viruses but they are a pain. You have to search all your files and find fragments...all that good stuff. It's just infuriating to have go through the whole process of it.

The little bugger, from what I saw, only stops you from using messenger, and it controls it. It sends friends messages for them to upgrade and then they get infected. I believe it is a version of malware.

Did you see the beta from msn, itself? If not, it could be a trap. There was a beta msn meesenger going around that was a virus a while ago.

Yay! I fixed it by uninstalling all the msn and internet related program files. I even made a patch. Haha, the virus doesn't give me enough credit.
