O.P. new virus
not a regular virus, just an annoying tool, which sends itself to all your contacts and signs you out

here is the link people will send you and you well send (if you click):
http://members.chello.nl/g.geurts/handcuffs.pif DO NOT OPEN

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. THIS IS CLEARLY A VIRUS AND WILL SPREAD THROUGH YOUR CONTACT LIST.

RE: new virus
Yeah, somebody just tried to send this to me, I was about to click 'cause I'm really tired, and I read the *.pif part and was like... ARGH god no and just didn't press it and exited the conversation, surely you can somehow contact the hosts of that website and get it shut down...

RE: new virus
The problem now is: nobody wants to test what it realy does and that's why there can't really be found a solution. I think deleting the file might help. (my brother had it, but he doesn't use MSN). It could be possible the file copies itself into an other directory.
