You know the ones that transmit themselves over MSN. Except this one is spreading through Skype (not sure about MSN but never know). Take caution if you have her on your skype list.

Remember:
1. Use Windows Update
2. Use an AV that doesn't suck
3. Don't be a noob on the internet.

Three very simple ways to staying protected.

Yeah those are ***** of a things, I think I gave one to a bunch of people on this site years ago through Windows Live Messenger. lesson learnt - Don't click on any links sent through Instant Messengers without confirming with the person first.

That sucks. I dont even know why people have to make virus' its so stupid.

amen to that. 3 very simple rules i do happen to follow.

People make money off of viruses, particularly spyware and specific trojans. Other people just do it for fun.

I don't know if it was spy-ware or whatever the hell it was but my bank account actually got hacked into a month or so ago and they took $32.95 on two different occasions through online transactions so it does indeed happen. Fortunately the banks investigation team caught the thief and he got punished. I did end up getting my money back, but like I said... it does indeed happen.

Those are fun.

1)My entire contact list is CHU friends and Chingy.
2) My AV is AVG.
3) Not an idiot.

What exactly is it doing, James wasn't too clear.

Edit: Also, some logic? If I'm the only one online then I have complete control over my account, no one has remotely logged in and sent out spam. Has James never had one of those spambots IM him? I get them constantly but ignore them.
