folks, I've just become aware of an MSN virus. This isn't a joke.
I was chatting to my nephew who sent me a message saying 'OMG you gotta see this pics' and a file transfer was initiated.
His PC crashed and when he rejoined, I asked him what the pics were that he was trying to show me.
He professed no knowledge of any pics but said he was having virus problems on his PC
The files are .zip files
BEFORE ACCEPTING ANY FILES FROM MSN BUDDIES, PLEASE CONFIRM THAT THE SENDER IS ACTUALLY SENDING YOU FILES

Yes, I had that virus 2 months ago. Dead annoying stuff. The best you can do is change of password, delete MSN then re-install it, I think (that worked for me).
Oh and of course, scan your computer and heal all the infected files.
