I'll just point out the lack of linux viruses here...the MSN ones dont' bother me, as I connect with Gabber (msn clone for linux), which wont execute the files. Plenty of available 'sploits though,,

As a thought, you could locate the file and delete it through DOS..

Yeah, there made so you can't just delete them like that, visit Mcafee.com to get free trials. You need to get a decent Disc, so you can get rid of it. What does Hello(1) do???

CD, do you know what the Love Bug is!!! It's not a MSN virus, it affects your whole computer, made by a man cauld Spider. He was arrested and the Love Bug doesn't exsit no more.
It use to hack into your address book and email everyone with the virus on it, then it shutdown and crashed your computer. It spread very wquickly and was very annoying and DANGEROUS virus, oh, and I've got the virus Choke. The best thing to do is never accept a file, only of someone you know and trust, and wait till lyou know what it is.

If you wanna get rid of the virus, just buy a anti-virus disc, and it wipes it off the PC.
