well all it really does is say ITS YOU!, and then sends you that link, then i guess it sends a message to everyone on your list saying the same thing....im assuming email addresses are being collected somewhere since the link it gives u has your email address on it....i jus want to know if theres anything else that it is capable of doing, i did actually click the link but it never worked for me, i guess it mustve been some software i have blocking it out, no clue lol, anyways i was never afffected by it, i just want to know if it did anything else besides collecting email addresses and being annoying...

SOMEONE SET UP US THE BOMB!

I ran a virus scan & found nothing... :dunno:

[GoChris]

you gotta be pretty stupid to get an msn virus.

[Deetz]

Happened to me too, i only opened it because it was coming from a contact i trusted, nothing has happened yet, but i am concerned for my computer.

[Dj_Stylz]

i got it opened it then it sent it to everyone
after i signed out and resigned in then it sent it to everyone

so i ran ad-aware found a few things but then i signed in again and it didnt send so i dunno whats going on...

[Despair*]

sounds like most of you guys need to be more careful when using your msn ;)

[GTS Jeff]

Heh I'm pretty good about this sorta thing, but I recently clicked a link without thinking. The first virus I've gotten in like 2 years haha. I think I've dealt with the problem now, so if you guys keep getting the virus links from me, let me know please!

[Dj_Stylz]

How you get rid of it?

[GoChris]

its possible virus scanner wont pick it up if its a brand spanking new, you usually gotta wait till your virus definitions are updated.

[civic_stylez]

i heard its just basically spyware...try running spybot or some form of anti spy..

*phew* Unfortunately it still manages to run somehow. I didn't click run, in fact I closed the window within 2 seconds, but it managed to mess my computer up all the same. I just deleted a bunch of shit, installed Norton Antivirus 2005, and did a full scan.

[GQBalla]

who is SP2??? and run what?

SP2 = service pack 2

they're talking about running the virus when the new window pops up
