My suspicions were confirmed once i got this message 3 times in a 2 minute convo. Do not download anything with a link to a file, unless the contact can clarify what they are saying

This has been identified as:
Win32/Nochod.I worm
(Backdoor.Win32.VBbot.i)

Well if you give me the full URL I can download it, run it in vmware and see what it is.
The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true.

RE: Yet another MSN Messenger based Virus
Thank you very much.  This virus is, as I just surprisingly found out, related to another virus I submitted to major virus companies earlier this week.

This file has been submitted to Symantec AntiVirus Response Team/Symantec Security Response (Makers of Norton AntiVirus) and McAfee AVERT (Makers of McAfee AntiVirus)
