MSN links / viruses

[Tigger]

How on earth do you stop them?

Clicked on a link sent to me earlier today - dead link.
Ever since my MSN has been sending random links to all my contacts

I have a fairly good anti-virus but won't pick anything up :S

Help!

Could be spyware if your anti virus didn't find it. This happened to me a few years ago in the end i just resorted to a format.

Download and run SpyBot Search and Destroy and CCleaner with all the boxes ticked

Should sort it

Also try this: http://www.msnvirusremoval.com/download.php

and theres me thinking you were fairly literate at that sort of thing trev!

as said...ccleaner is the job!

 

[The Boosh!]

change your account password

best thing is to avoid links sent through msn Trev.

As said, there are some good cleaning tools out there, also get your pssaword changed.

^^ exactly as above - ccleaner is good at finding stuff like this!
