Yes of course it's a virus. DON'T CLICK IT.

Purity: will you use some common sense if you HAVE ANY IN YOUR FUCKING BRAIN!?!?!!

What has been the height of conversation the last few months?!?!

MSN MESSENGER VIRUSES

HAVE YOU NOT LEARN NOT TO CLICK LINKS?

It's people like you that don't deserve to have a fucking computer. !

RE: Is this a virus? by ddunk on 04-24-2005 at 12:39 AM

yes, It is a virus. I gave the link to Segosa on IRC so he could mess with it, Dane clicked it an accidentally ran it and it got sent to his contact list.

I am working on having the DNS of the drone server removed as we speak. Once they lose their sub-domains it's pretty useless.

That looks like its another variant of W32.Kelvir you can download the removal tool from Symantec

Basically time is trying to get the domain that the virus is on removed so that the link will not resolve to the virus.

RE: Is this a virus? by Purity on 04-24-2005 at 01:03 AM

Dude, that seriously wasn't necessery, the only reason I clicked on it was it sounded believable, and it had my email in it, seriously sounded like he was sending it to me not some stupid virue.

RE: Is this a virus? by banky on 04-24-2005 at 01:04 AM

Open your eyes.

The last 10 viruses have been in EXACTLY the same format. pictures.php?email=your_email.

EDIT: And to append to what Time has said: those were newly infected yesterday through MSN Messenger.
