Apparently there's a new virus spreading through MSN Messenger called W32/Sumom-A, or W32/Crog.worm, or W32.Serflog.A.

If you check out the "Advanced" tab of that page, you'll see that the virus actually tries to pose as MsgPlus (Messenger Plus! 3.50.exe)...

Someone in my family actually downloaded this virus, and I couldn't identify it until just now. Fortunately it didn't do any damage because it wasn't executed under an admin account, this PC is pretty secure, and I noticed it right away.
