PLEASE Do NOT click the link in your MSN window! It is a virus!
(Note: clicking the link above in this post will not give you the virus - I modified its location to a nonexistant page.)

I got that virus.......for about 5 seconds. Once I clicked on it, AVG popped up telling me that I had just been infected and it automatically deleted the file. I'm not afraid of viruses, spyware, or malware. I'm mainly afraid of adware, since I have very little protection against it. Still, if I'm infected with something especially nasty, I just have to spend 2 hours formatting the thing and restoring all of my files. Such computer worries only make you live shorter.

Hello:
Sorry for the late reply, but thanks... I'll have that one noted just in case ;) . I remember sometime ago I wss almost infected by something similar, that's why I alwayd asks the contact for every file they wanted me to send and I tell always before I send a file or a link myself.
