I think some people have recieved a virus, they are sending files called "p0017_jpg.zip" and are unable to confirm that they are sending it to me (AFK?). The file and message "loooooool " were sent at the same time (Second). There is a .com application inside the zip file, antiviruses do not find this virus. It seems that after the virus is sent, the contact does not see any of your messages.
I suggest you do not open the file. If you did accept the virus, do NOT open the .com file inside.
Removing the virus
Here is that tool
English --> http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx
Polish --> http://www.microsoft.com/poland/security/virus/malware.mspx
Agent, Aragorn and Crimson have sent it to me and Aragorn has sent it to Daniel as well.
Examples of text:
[R*]Agent - Legolas says: byloooooooooooool
[Rstar]Crimson says: lol you got to see this
Aragorn - [R*]RON says: :P
[Rstar]Crimson says: loooooooooooool :D
Jakez says: loooooooooooool :D

It is concected to msn, i thing it takes full control of msn so please change your passwords.
-
Sorry, but i find it really funny they sending virus to you guys even if they didnt do it :lol:
Good luck wit hthe viruses :\
-
Was this today? If so, I didn't get it, cause I was outside being bad :weed: :weed: :roll:
-
That was so FUCKING annoying!
I got it from Aragorn saying :P... Then he said Dowafag and then :P again.
I accepted and opened the file :(
All I did was Restart, delete it off my prog files and run a virus check. I think it's gone
-
Spreading viruses using a free-ware patented program is against the law... I wish you good luck in federal prison.. :cry:
MSN Was created in U.S.A. So at least you get a free plane trip to here! Ill visit you some time :P
Good thing Legolas blocked me on MSN haha :P
-
I got this w/o loooool and as zip jpg file. Already fixed. It sends too all you re contacts.
-
Legolas, how did you fix it?
-
Program from Microsoft site, he cleans worms other danger programs.
-
I got it too. It was a zip file. Thought it had some screenshots in it, but it was an EXE. Ofcourse I didn't open it. It was so obvious it was a virus. My god, that people fall for that trick. These are the same people that click "Remove me from this mailinglist" links in SPAM mails. My god.
Good luck removing the virus y'all.. :cop:

He is right... One way to tell that a .exe is a virus is if it is under 1000 KB (1mb) Always ask what the folder is before you accept it or open it
So if you're downloading a movie or game on Limewire.. and its 10 kb.. Its a virus

bwhahaha, so true. so true.
-I've seen people do this shit too, on my main MSN, but it's in swedish... they say like: 'kolla in, jag o mina polare' - 'check me and my friends' and always too many smileys... Never accepted, took me 1 second to realize something was up. Now I watch this and now I know something was up :D

There are worse things.... people ask to be removed from an EXISTING mailing list and starting a discussion with all people on it not to send any more mails. :rofl:

Ass i already told here is tool that you can delete that virus.
-
When Aragorn was sending pic i think what i have done again... :redface:
-
If anyone is interested, these are the files it affects:
rcimlby.exe - Windows Remote Connection Tool
system32/ftp.exe - Windows FTP tool
system32/drivers/tcpip.sys - TCP/IP Driver
-
i dont think this is funny... its sad.
-
I got it sent from crimson, however cuz i was ingame I couldnt accept it. I thought it pretty strange that he even sent me ote as I have never talked to him on msn... then i looked at file name xD.... lol
-
It looks like some kind of keylogger. My friend had one of these once, but he found the secret hotkey to display it. There was a password for an FTP server (the host was similar to freewebs) and he got a program that gets through the asterisks (******) and he got the passwords. There there were thousands of entries of keylog logs and screenshots which people had had taken from them whilst using the "innocent" program. He said he changed the FTP password. Maybe that's the end of it, who knows.
Anyways, good luck to all of you in removing...I hope it's not a keylogging spy,
John
-
jake & agent send me T_T i didnt open tho
-
Brad....did you open the file?......
cause i jsut got a looooooooool message from you
-
SO ANNOYING!
It is STILL working my MSN to shits.. Thanks Legolas, I downloaded your Microsoft thing.. So far done 500,000 files on my comp and found 1 infected file.
I hope this works. Sorry to everyone who I sent loooool to, I'm an idiot :(
-
Ugh, I didnt open it :\
It appears to pass on to anyone who is imed with it :@
-
Got it from crimson and Aragorn. Didnt accept... the message was looooooooool
-
Agents thing didnt work for me, if it didnt work for you, download AVG antivirus, cleared it in 40 seconds for me.
-
Not going on msn :D
-
The funniest virus i ever had was a trojan horse and mcafee asked me if i want to allow the connection.
The good thing with mcafee for all you infected people with mcafee you can trace an ip to the host and you are given a email to contact the provider on =D.
By the way this is what i have been getting recently in my email DO NOT ACCEPT THEM please view them
another warning is if your going to post your email do it like this [ code ] (no spaces) warren.doyle(at)btinternet(dom)com[ / code ] (no spaces). this stops all google bots finding it so you should be safe
-
I accepted the zip folder, I did not click on that link inside it, am I safe?
I have completely removed the folder btw.
-
LOL The Link is weird.....it takes you throught like 40 differnet "Porn" sites and then stops at one that lists like 1000 of them and says this is all free and stuff like that
and it states the package you recieved on MSN is the key to this and all that
its f*cking Gay
again.....im not infected cuase im a mac user.....so ...srry i have to say this..... IN YOUR FACE PC USERS!!!
-
again.....im not infected cuase im a mac user.....so ...srry i have to say this..... IN YOUR FACE PC USERS!!!
Yes, again you've said that. Typical Mac user.
But yeah, I've seen quite a few of these. Normally a link to a website followed by ''is dis u??? lolol]'' in about half a second. Some of them are so obvious it's sad.
-
this is SO annoying...i got it from Sickness but i didn't accept it :p
-
Yes, again you've said that. Typical Mac user.
your jsut jealous...=P
but yeah dude mine is diffrent i dont get infected but when they start pming me eveyr pm is in a new window
-
Strangely I have loads of people on MSN from Argonath but recieved it only once. :conf:
-
If that would not be Crimson, I would never open it :)...
Fixed...
-
I got that sent from Aragorn last night :rofl: it tried to send me it 5 times under one hour
-
Nobody's sent it to me :( I feel rejected
-
Nobody's sent it to me :( I feel rejected
I can send it to you, I still have the virus. :lol:
-xcasio ;)
-
So kind of you xcasio :D
-
I remember my frist msn virus, someone sent me a link saying "Is this you? :LINK:"
I was stupid enough to download it and it f** my computer up. :lol: :roll:
My Advice, always ask, and look at the names before downloading or clicking.. :)
-
Hmm I know why some people accept these, but you do have to use some common sense (I almost accepted it, because it came from 3 different admins. Then I saw the spam attack and decided against it :)
-
I got the virus from Crimson. It was really weird, and I said "Are you genuinely sending me a file?", he didn't reply, so I thought "hmm, probably a virus". Then I got the file from Aragorn and Legolas, and wrote about it on the forums. :)
-xcasio ;)
-
Yeah I just got it from Aragorn.. I actually thought it was something, because a couple of weeks ago Aragorn said that he would send me something.
I thought that would be it, because I got :P while sending :(
-
Wow, that is nasty... :hit:
-
Aragorn sends:
F0538.jpg.zip (424kb)
[EsC] Andre (Argonath RPG) ütleb:
What is this?
[EsC] Andre (Argonath RPG) ütleb:

Again...
-
I saw it, but i knew about it and didnt accept the file :redface: lolz
-
The wierd war is not over yet :wow:
Aragorn tried to send me an file:
Aragorn says: :P
Aragorn send: f0538_jpg.rar
:conf:
-
Yes, I got the same thing today. A few minutes ago.
-
Aragorn. Until your msn is free from the wierd virus i will block you. I don't want such things into my comp.
-
Yeah, Aragorn has it again.
Go to this page, there are 3 pages of info on what this virus does and how to remove it. (http://www.cisrt.org/enblog/read.php?152)
-xcasio ;)
-
Also everyone who got me, block. As I am not free from it also.
