Be careful if you receive a message saying "Is this a picture of you" from another Skype member, as it is a trojan virus that has found its way into my skype contacts. It is sending it to msn messenger, skype contacts and even mobile phones across the globe, SO DO NOT OPEN IT.

I got the TROJAN virus the other day. completely crashed the computer and came up with payment details for (microsoft?) said once i give credit card details the virus will be removed.

|Took me 2 days to get rid of it,

had to go to the task manager, open a new task with priority (internet explorer) so th explorer still worked even though windows would crash every 5 seconds.

then dwnload the latest version of ( microsoft essentials)

I would strongly recomend that everyone download (MICROSOFT ESSENTIALS) now as it is the only free thing that will work against the virus.

Honestly 2 days of playing about to get rid. so prevention is better than cure as we all know.
