    The only thing you have to do is to change your password. Somehow the virus stole your password and user name.

    I&#39;ve got it once too and I deleted everything I got from MSN Messenger and re-install it.

    Should work

    Dont log in to porn sites

    But I think you should just delete msn and download it again and like merlin said change your password.

    I think its gone now. If it comes back ill totally reinstal msn.

    Why should I change my password? It only does it when I logged in so.

    Gosh its back.

    Im deleting everything that has to do with msn now & changing my password afterwards.

    If I deleted it in Start > Control pannel > Software
    and also at c://program files or w/e does that mean everything is gone?

    www.download.com

    Get Ccleaner that proggie will help remove all the leftover traces after program uninstall.. Plus many other nice features.

    Btw I would do these steps:

    Log safe mode
    Uninstall MSN
    Run spybot/Antivirus
    Run Ccleaner
    Reboot
    Reinstall MSN
