there is a new AIM profile virus... when you click it it installs itself onto your computer and sets your away message to "i just made a screensaver! everyone check it out http://www.esynx.com/screensaver.scr click open to see it!!"

i have been unable to find anything on google about it

anyone any ideas?

its not a hoax... whoever clicks it gets it. maybe its not defined as a virus, but whenever you click that link, the program gets downloaded to your computer (you hafta clikc "open") and it puts that as your aware message.
