looks like there is a virus floating on msn

[Steve]

anyone else see it?
its auto sending itself, so the personsending it wont know anything about it.

had it from 2 diff ppl, one of my contacts is getting it from 3 other ppl :/

[Steve]

lol never run a file that has an extension '.pif'

just talking with my clan on TS, one of em has just run the file... causing chaos :O
