AOL/AIM virus warning

[Nittanys1]

There is a virus going around that uses AOL Instant Messenger to send the virus. An infected computer sends an IM to everyone on the buddy list. The message isn't seen by the sender, and it say something close to the following: "hey there, is this (http://www.importatlanta.com) you?

when you click on this it downloads the virus to tour computer and then will later send it to everyone on your buddy list....watch out....

SP2 = Service Pack 2

Lets you know when you click it, and it gives you warning if want to install or not

Yeah- I got it too. You can go to www.trendmicro.com and do a free virus scan that will clean your computer out. I also ran a spy software and ad software. If you can't get rid of the virus clean out you temopary windows files and temporary internet files.
