MSN VIRUS ALERT!!!!!!!! ...

[Kermit The Fr@g]

PPL, if you get the message in MSN: This is funny, Check so-amd-so website, do NOT CLICK ON THIS, close Msn and restart instead...

I got this from Nick and I was stupid enough to open it cause i thougt it was legit.
It immediately replicated it self to other online users (Squish and Neg).
Its trying to poll other websites and boots up some executables, so it's obviously a trojan or worm with a nasty payload (BACKDOOR???).

I'll look into it tomorrow, 2 tired now, cba.... I'll let u know what ive found out and how u shoud treat it...

[Bad_Squishee]

I removed all files and uninstalled all the dodgy progs- nothing more so far. (Check your taskmanager and your "software")
Second firewall is running though.

[Green_Goblin]

I remember Kahu sending me a link good job i didn't click it :D

[TheFella]

I remember warning everyone of this type of thing a couple of weeks ago on this forum ;)

I have received loads of these, but ain't clicked on any. Cause it blatantly looks like a virus lol.

I'll do a bit of research as well. After job club tho.

[M@rv!n]

I got it from Zen and as soon as I clicked it Kaspersky picked it up and deleted it... no more problems

[GreenGrass]

I came back from being away to find four of these. Needless to say I thought something was amiss so clicked nothing.

[HaYl0]

heh yeh it obviouse when you come back to about 10 people asking the exact same thing....or tabbing out of cs, i got the first one and it looked dodgy so didnt click but im safe in the knowledge Kaspery will pick it up if i did click it :D

[TheFella]

I thought something was amiss so clicked nothing.
Shame. Try clicking the next ones.

This is very very old news....
Bropia has been around for a very long time now and still some ppl haven't heard about this so I hope this topic here alerts all i nthis community.

[TheFella]

[Soulari-]

Pc communities say it's a bropia variant....guess it has a different name of each variant.
