yeah im a nub and accepted the photo zip file and now im sending the same crap to all of my buds on msn.

gah I tried a lot of crap trying to get this off but failed...

- updated avast and did a full scan, came out clean
- ran msn photo virus remover, came out clean
- uninstalled msn, changed my pass, reinstalled msn, still does it
- deleted the actual file that I downloaded in my received files folder
- went on msconfig and unchecked msn, then ran taskmanager to see if there were any weird looking apps running, I found nothing unusual.


...ah any suggestions?

oh and if anyone knows me on msn, don't accept any of the files I send you. I probably won't be signing on unless im sure this problems fixed.

I don't like the green color though'' And I was like, cause, people send me pictures a lot O_o and photoshop I know he might do so yea.

Why would you think an archive file is an image

Because some people are stupid enough to think that anything with .JPG means its an image. This guy 'Saha' has the virus to and keeps sending me an archive:
Album_20901[B][B].jpg[/B][/B].zip

Lmao, he renamed a zip file as "blablabla.jpg.zip".

Like anyone would fall for that.



Oh, right.
