New variant of MSN worm found!

This week a new variant of MSN worm was found! MSN Cleaner doesn't really works anymore. For those who using MSN/Windows Live Messenger, please take note of this.

I tested and MSN Cleaner did not managed to detect the main host file. MSN Cleaner only managed to clean the so called ‘spreading’ files which usually detect as imageXX.zip.

Finally, I have to use Hijackthis to scan and remove it.
