Theres a virus going round at the moment over MSN.
You may get a message from one of your contacts saying something like 'Do you think this picture is too kinky for myspace?'
Then a file transfer will pop up as though your contact is sending you a pic. Its a zip file that if you accept the file it will download a password worm onto your computer and will attack yuor registry.
So just a quick heads up about this - a couple of my friends have just been hit by this over MSN!

Yeah I've seen this virus before like. Had someone try send me something similar the other week. I was wary because I'd had the person deleted from my contacts for.. well, years

Yea, I got one too from someone whose old email addres was still in my contacts list but no longer used that address, it said something like "new house pics", but I knew they hadn't moved so I deleted it without opening it.
Some sneaky people out there!!

i got hit with this last week and fell for it thought it was my brother inlaw sending me a link. I had to change my pass word and that seemed to sort it and also ran a scan.
