I caught some stupid virus, which keeps sending vitus links to my contacts on my msn messenger.
Need help, anybody familiar with this scenario?

More than likely a stupid spam virus. It is trying to send links thru your contacts e-mail addresses. If they get any mail from you...tell them to delete immediatly! Also, go thru your system32 and windows folders, and se if you can find any files that don't belong, or have ben modified around the same time you started having this problem. Another place those types like to hide, is in your C:\Documents and setings\name here\local settings\temp directory, if you can't delete the whole folder, go into safe mode and do so under admin. Hope this helps.
