Someone is fscking with my friends MSN messenger account.

[BigToque]

Whenever she logs on, there is always something that makes a message come up that is just a smily face, that says its being typed by George.W.Bush@whitehouse.gov

Anyone know of a hack or something similar to this that has gone around.

This message only comes up when the person she is talking to types the message. It also tried to send me a .EXE file called Stefan.EXE, which I assume whatever she has on her system is a [username].EXE program running.

Any ideas/solutions?

I would simply try uninstalling and reinstalling the program. It can be uninstalled from the Windows Setup tab in Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel. Try that.

Do what WoodchuckCharlie said....or a better way may be to throw out your hard drive, and replace it w/ another one...that's what I do when I encounter problems like this.

This is also effective in removing cookies, and I.E cache.

There was a worm going around. It might be related to that.

Edit: This is probably it. It's a worm called "choke".
