I was talking to Spider earlier, when suddenly, on my screen, popped 'Would you like to accept the file 'shoot George Bush'. I clicked no, since it sounds carp. Then down the bottom of the window appeared '[email protected] and Spider are typing'.
'How could this be' I thought - I was only in a conversation with Spider, and no one else. Then I was bombarded be loads of ;) (winky) faces from Spider. I demanded Spider to tell me what he was doing, but he said he knew nothing, and that he could not see the winky faces.

I think this happened to me once before Spider.

My guess is that is a virus. When you run it it tries to send itself to others via MSN, and then annoys the heck out of you.

Am I right? Has anybody else experienced it?

It also says: Spider says "President bush shooter is game that allows you to shoot Bush balzz" hahaha.

Spider did not say that, and the font and font size were neutral. (Black and Arial)
