If you get a message on msn that looks like this:

look at this http://alboud.com/pictures.php?email=your@msn_email_here.com

DO NOT CLICK IT

It is a windows system virus that started spreading a little while ago.

Don't use it, but thanks for the warning. Saying this, I'll probably download it tomorrow or a week from now and say, "I wonder what this is?"

ZAP!!!!!! XD

right, if i think its what it is...it isn't really a VIRUS as such...just a program which u can shut down by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete and 'End Task'

Basically when 1 person opens that link, it doesn't work but u CAN download a file. You click ok and when it's downloaded it auto-runs.

The program opens ALL ur MSN contacts and says

Hey!
It's You!
---URL---

They open the URL and it all happens again..

u can easily shut it off by pressing Ctrl+alt+delete and doing 'End Task' but it can take a while lol

btw, the program lags ur comp BECAUSE it is opening ALL of the contacts at once but DOES NOT HARM YOUR COMPUTER


Similar..but not the same this time. It downloads itself into your temp internet files. And it works a little diffrently. But the basics are pretty much there.

A good swipe of ad aware gets rid of it as well. Others have told me this.
