Hi, there is a new MSN virus going around. It will disguise itself as a message from a friend (infected, and has no knowledge of it), saying things like:

do you see anything strange in this picture about me?
hey want to look at my new pictures?
Wanna see my pics before i send em to facebook?
you mind if I upload this pic to my online album?
do you think this picture is too kinky for Myspace?
This picture isnt you... right?

hey you got a myspace album? anyways heres my new myspace album :) accept k?
hey man accept my pics. :( i just edited it to look maad funny..
Dude i found your picture on hotornot.com! Take a look!

If you accept the file, I did :\, It will duplicat itself and resend as you, to all msn contacts, and sent e-mails to all your contacts. Mine were about penis enlargements.....

If you do happen to accept, here are a couple of things you can do to clear it:

-Run a full system scan with a GOOD Anti-Virus, e.g. Norton, in safe mode---- Safe mode http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx

-Go to MY DOCUMENTS, then RECIEVED FILES, then delete any compressed files.

Hope this is a good resource :)

Then I would go to an IT Shop, and tell them, so they can fix it.

No thats not new at all.. The picture scheme always keeps on going

I accepted once accidentally but I manually removed it by tracing the steps through the system logs and other.. Logical ways...

Yeah, I tried that, It sortof worked. Well It took 3 weeks, but I've just removed it lol

Yeah that happened to me, but when I tried to open the file my anti-virus said it was an infected, so I didn't open it.

Maverick

I've seen a lot of it going round. I've just blocked everyone with it.

I had one of those ages ago. As soon as I signed on, it would send auto-messages to everyone on my list.

Now, I'm more .. computer aware, two people on my list have it. I don't block them, I just don't accept.

To be honest, the only people that fool for it, are n00bs. And they send the same message over and over.

Andy is correct
