I got this virus from msn it says "Check :p" then a link like "www.something.somethin.com/?pic2038.gif" but when you click it, it makes you download pic2038.PIF. Also i cant run my computer in safe mode, it just restarts. The annoying thing is that it brodcasts it self over msn by opening a program called form1.exe and send out random messages like the one i just told you about.....does anyone have a removal kit or instructions on how to remove it?

PS it isnt and of the viruses that are at www.happy-messaging.com.

Have you tried running a System Restore to a point before you obtained the virus?

Life is more painless for those who are brainless.
