Virus

Hi all!
As you may know there is an anoying virus going around on MSN. I am sure
that many would agree with me, that this is starting to get a bit vexing!!!!
However when this virus occours, it does not seem to affect the rest of my
computer. But i do believe that it is msn's duty to deal with this, as its
only affecting msn. I hope you can do somthing about this in the not to
distant future!
Thanks

Re: Virus

Greetings Jack,

There have been thousands of "annoying" viruses on Messenger for over a decade. I can assure
you that it is not just affecting "MSN", as there are plenty of viruses on AIM, Yahoo
Messenger and any other instant messaging platform.

As Normal has already indicated to you, you'll need to be a little more specific about what's
happening in your particular case for us to really help.
