renames the infected computer to noob
once msn is started and logged in it spreads by hijacking the mouse and then uses copy and paste the message with the containing link to online contacts
it also seems to copy itself onto the network
process name:img2184.jpg-www.imageshack.com
this is easily removed
block all internet traffic
start taskmanager and kill: img2184.jpg-www.imageshack.com
its listed in processes
now delete the file
scan your computer and remove the traces from your network
