Is it possible to disable this?

is this the virus that sends messages to everyone on ur contact list telling them to look at some pictures of them at a party, or something similar?

This is a new feature in Windows Live Messenger.  It's just a warning that tells you that every link someone sends you could possibly be a virus.  It seems to happen to me with every link someone sends me but I've had people say it doesn't do that for them.  It told me www.microsoft.com is a dangerous site...
