If you get a virus warning by simply visiting a website then either your browser is seriously set wrongly (it allows anything to be downloaded and executed automatically)[*] or your virusscanner is seriously oversensitive and gives wrong info and false warnings for everything[**]...
(or you do not get a warning at all when visiting the website and you actually meant "If I execute the installer, downloaded from that website"[***])
[*] But that website doesn't have any pop ups or hidden whatever, which is run, so this isn't the case...
[**] Which is most likely the case. So I'd suggest to get another virusscanner...
[***] Which means the same as [**]; your scanner is oversensitive. (and you confuse website surfing with executing a file...)
--------------------
As for the specific software "MSN Webcam Recorder" listed by SonicSam, this isn't a free software, it is shareware. And if you are going to use it, you need to pay $24,95.
It also contains no virusses what-so-ever.
The official website is
http://www.dvdwindow.com/msn
And the latest version can directly be downloaded from
http://www.dvdwindow.com/msn/qqvideo.zip
--------------------
As for alternatives, search the various MSN Messenger related sites, as this question is asked and answered before

And/or
google for it.
eg:

WebCam Recorder:

Auto Screen Recorder:

Camtasia Studio:

etc...
etc...
I suggest to follow ALL the links given here and read and explore what the various functions are; some programs have special tutorials regarding MSN Messenger.
Note: The MSN Messenger addon "Messenger Discovery X" also has a webcam recording function, but this is in fact not a real recorder!; it simply takes screenshots, it does not "record" anything.
