MSN Messenger Virus Jitux.A
By Jian Shuo Wang on 2004-01-07 20:08 · MSNWarninig! Virus Alert!
According to MSN Messenger newsgroup (microsoft.public.msn.messenger), a new virus is found.
2003 is ending with another computer virus causing havoc on the net.
Anti-virus company Panda Software has warned net users to watch out for a new virus, a worm called Jitux.A, which is spread via MSN Messenger.
Jitux.A is an aggressive code that contains a link to the web page www.home.no/ / jituxramon.exe. Once open, the file JITUXRAMON.EXE automatically downloads, infecting your computer. The worm file stores itself in the computer’s memory and sends new infected
messages every five minutes to all contacts in your Messenger’s Contact List. Panda Software advises web users to update their anti-virus patch as soon as possible. Users can also download the free online anti-virus PandaActiveScan available at the company website.

Aslo, hold not to accept invitation to add to your contact list for a while.
Sounds like an attempt to scare people from adding others to their MSN contact list to me. Don't believe this. Has to be a hoax I think.
Follow the other advice in this message thread (do not open attachments sent from friends or family unless you are EXPECTING it or are 100% confident that it is not a file type that can carry a virus (such as .mp3 or .jpg))
message comming like this "Sorry, we are unable to ....... plz try again later. 80072fod".
so if there is any solution plz.....
Your a retard
Your a retard
The reason your recieving that message is because you are either using MSN messenger 7 (Beta) or have a Messenger that isn't updated.
If you have MSN Messenger 7 (Beta) or a lower make, uninstall MSN Mesenger and then install MSN MEssenger 6.2
Once thats done, it will ask to be updated, say 'yes' and you won't have anymore connection problems.

1. Calm down and reboot your brain ;-) Fear and anger are bad advisors.
2. Unplug the modem of the infected PC. Shut down the PC.
3. Using another, not infected PC, download new anti-virus software including the *very latest* virus definition files. Burn it onto a CDROM.
4. Boot the infected PC in "safe mode", install the anti-virus software. Scan and clean your PC (make a backup of all data before doing this).
5. If this doesn't work, you usually need to reinstall all the software on your PC
6. Take care that this doesn't happen in the future anymore. Install a anti-virus scanner and guard (real-time monitoring). Update them every couple of days. And most importantly: Don't click on a thing just because it says "click me".
7. Use safer software. For example, don't use Microsoft software but Apple or Linux software.
Good luck!

I've got a set of viruses which are, step by step, f*cking
up all the files in c:\WINDOWS and programs
such as Internet Explorer, Acrobat Reader, MS Office,
Windows Media Player and others.
Plus my pc has the habit to shut down completely
without warning (one second it works, the other not
even a little light burns anymore) and although this
doesn't happen too often, it's very unpredictable when
it does this.
I'm able to stop most virsuses' execution using
the task manager (ctrl + alt + del), but some are
IN the system files, which means I can't shut
them down like that. Corrupted source files...
Well, to all virus programmers out there:
you're as sick as my "friend" Gorik, go get some help
and buy me a new pc for you f*cked up my other, will
you?

QH, You're wrong!, I'm running vista right now!
Vista RC1 (Release Candidate 1) that is, It works perfectly, I have not had any problems with viruses, the new windows firewall works a charm. You can only download Vista RC1 If you participated in Microsoft's Vista Beta program. Lol also qh macs do have viruses, the computers at school are so f*cked up that you can't even open firefox on half of them. Anyway, anyone need any help with viruses or stuff just eMail me at sycrat@bigpond.net.au. Most of the stuff you guys are talkin about isn't so hard to get rid of, you just need to not give up, its always possible, you don't even need antivirus software if you know what you are doing (although I do recommend a good firewall and virus/spyware protector. I'm really bored so I should be able to help you as soon as possible. By the way, I will not give any of you permission to add me on msn because you all seem to have Viruses and crap, as easy as it is to get rid of, it's not fun and it's a waste of time.
Hopefully I should be able to help all of you,
Kind Regards....
Zycrat....
These are a list of things the virus did:
Sent the same message ("omg is this you (link to virus)") to all of my contacts.
Shut down the task manager as well as the msconfig menu.
Slowed down my computer.
Slowed down my virus utitlitys by making them randomly unresponsive.
Good luck to any of you who have it.
Regards,
Jack
