i know someone has had to have heard of this

i clicked the wrong thing i think in someones profile, so every couple minutes when i am on AIM, my away message is randomly turned on and says "OMG, and then lists some wierd link to click

anyone know how I can rid of this, my virus scanner isnt finding it,

thanks

Run AIM Fix, if it detects something, run it again after reboot to make sure it removed it.

After that, run a full Adaware/Spybot S&D scan, after updating it.

Then change your profile and restart your computer again - make sure it's gone for good :-). I believe there should be a process called "YahooMsgr.exe" running - that's the culprit. If it still apears, I would suggest a HJT log.



Hope that helps,
