Okay. So there's this bug that I need help with. Basicly, in the middle of a conversation, your screen name automaticly inputs "hey go to, http://24.189.196.91:8180". Too bad that that site gives you the virus...I need to find out how the hell to get rid of the little f***er...any ideas? :(

It is very unlikely that ti's a virus from aim. It's quote possible you got it from somapleace else.

1. Do a virus scan.

2. If virus scan shows up fine, try searching for spyware/adware - those things can be quite amazing at times.

3. If those don't say anything, then it IS an AIM virus, and thus jsut get rid of it, and either get a fresh download or get some other client, like Trillian (www.trillian.cc). Remember to do another scan after you have uninstalled.

4. Still doesn't help? Maybe you should stop watching porn so much (how else would you get that? o_O). If you have this AIM installe don an HDD other than the one your System fiels are at, then reformat it. If not, then just back up all your data, and do a complete restoration.

5. After completeing above, for gods sake, GET A DECENT AntiVirus and Firewall!
