Exclamation msn virus
there is a virus going around on msn.. spyware dr says its a trojan

If a friend sends you any kind of file..... it may say look at my pictures or screen shot or anything.. DO NOT OPEN IT!
treat ANYTHING that you have to open in msn as suspicious and ask your friend if they meant to send it because it send to your contacts automaticaly when either you or them sign in...it changes everytime and can damage your computer

I have it and cant get rid of it now......
