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?

Or to stop the stupid winks stop trying to send it!
Once you start a conversation, it gets sent anyway. There's no stopping it.
I know how to get rid of it!!!

Do not try and send the file spider!
Yeah, I've just had a conversation with him, and he just wanted to see what was being said in the MSN speech window. Almost got the virus myself, if it wasn't for my virus checker.
This is what happpened, I was chatting to Namo/ Swish. And themn up comes this guy. I transfer the file, and theres a pic. But i cant see the pic as i dont have flash something.
And the next thing i know i'm doing ;) all over the place. And they dont come up on mine screen, but i'm getting it sorted!

Wait this is too confusing you can't get files unless the other person asks you!
I don't believe SPider cos you can only transfer files with the person you are talking to!
Go to Antivirus.com and click on "Free tools". Or go to my-etrust.com and get the free trial virus checker there.
