i myself have a similair problem, i can send a message on AIM but as soon as someone starts to reply it "performs an illegal operation" and i have to close it, the cause is from a couple spyware files, http://www.aim.com has this on their site, the cause i have is on there, some Shopping and Search spyware or whatever it is called, anyway Ad-Aware, Spybot, SpySweeper(good program), AVG, Trend Micro, or Norton will get rid of this. so i am just going to format and end it.

It's a trojan, clean your system, happens to dumb people om AIm all the time. Run Spybot and Adaware, it should get rid of it.

Might want to email AOL about that one...

Why would i be asking about how to get the virus off my comp if i were trying to spread it? So yea...dont click on the link...i prolly should have mentioned that. Its just some wierd thing that pops up as my away msg at random times. Just wondering if anybody knew about it or had a way to get rid of it...thanx...pEaCe

ok, that link wants me to download something. such a thing makes me think you are trying to spread it.
