    OK, something happened at the weekend. Someone who is on my messenger contact list did a sig for me to use on a forum.

    The next day when he signed on and started an IM convo "accept these" he said. The green bar started moving, but there was no accept/decline. Where those words were it said 'virus'.

    I closed the window and blocked him before anything could happen.

    Was he intentionally trying to infect me or was he unaware of a possible infection ?

    I'm somewhat confused..

    Not sure! Which instant messenger are you referring to anyway? What was in the signature?

    Is your PC showing any signs of problems?
