The is a virus going around on AIM and I want to warn you all. I got it myself from someone and it is terrible. When you get it it goes to all your freind online on your buddy list and it says
How do you do THIS?
This is a link to a gif.exe program and it crashes your AIM. All you have to do to get rid of it is do a spyware scan and it will go away... if you don't it will stay in your system and infect it... So if you see it don't click it. I am just warning you all.

To all the people that has blocked me on AIM from x10: DSFreek, and others I am sorry... please forgive me :blushing: :crying:

This has been going around for ages, My brother got it once and it would send everyone on his list a message like "look at this picture it looks just like you" I could not get it off his system, I even did all the major spyware program scans (like microsoft anti-spy, ad-aware, and spybot) but none of them worked. So I did a little google search and found this: http://www.jayloden.com/aimfix.htm ... Worked like a charm :)

Yes, don't ever never click on the link! It will **** up your video card somehow. As soon I got it, I've got the pink-rainbow colors thing and cause crashes. =/

I'm pretty sure that taht is your moniter. My old my moniter had a button that you would press and you'd get that rainbow on your screen for a bit. Maybe you have the button stuck.
