This is what I got from a friend. But he was too late. I received the virus before he warned me.

Norton AntiVirus 2003 successfully deleted teh virus and no harm now. :)
Guys (& Gals) be sure to have an antivirus software installed...!!

Thanks a ton for the tip, also what anit-v do you recommend>?

Personally I wished I could use McAfee, as Hotmail emails are scanned using McAfee (and therefore assuming that they chose McAfee cos it is better :D).

But after everytime I checkout a newer version of McAfee, gets unsatisfies at server timeups in Virus Definitions updating and various system errors, and move back to Norton AntiVirus. :)
