AIM Virus!!!

[kingsol]

any of you guys run into the message:check this out, is that you?

i, sadly, clicked on it and now i'm sending this to all the people on my buddy list.

any of you guys know how to get rid of it?

I don't know, someone just sent it to me, but I don't think I sent it to anyone else. I got one before, I had to delete AIM and re-install.

Guys.. when someone messages you and says "Hey! Check this out" - never check it out. Only click links when you've been having a conversation with them, or once you get the link, ask what it is. If it was a person telling you to check something out, they'll reply.
If you don't get a reply and weren't in conversation with them, don't click it.

Even S14db has started a message to me with a link, and my reply is always "Why? What the hell is it" and he replies, so I know it's good.

theres also another one that goes "look at my pictures" and pictures is underlined

^ my gf click on that "look at my picture" virus link, but got a error page and clicked out. what does this virus do? the computer seems to be running fine.

[SilviaDriver]

does the same shit as stated above, sends out IM's to everybody on the bl list

what IM THINKING is, the "look at my picture" has changed to "is this a picture of u" crap

since both do the same exact shit

Someone sent me me that thing do but How do I know if I have it?

EDIT: I got aim fix and it said it deleted find.exe I guess I might have had something

[kingsol]
