O.P. HELP! I have a virus!
I opened a zip file thru messenger and now my computer is sending out spam email to email addresses that I don't recognize and they are not from me (i.e. the sender email address is one I don't recognize) None of the virus protection programs that I have are catching it. What is it? How do I get rid of it?!

Try changing your MSN password and see if that helps

yeah and besides I had already tried that. It seems to have embedded the virus somewhere in my hard drive and every so often it just blasts all these random spam emails to  A LOT of different emails.... I even uninstalled MSN and still nothing - it continued as it was before 8o|
