Default WARNING virus via MSN

WARNING virus


New one comes via MSN my son downloaded last night and it's taken me all day to sort it. The virus is called YINSTALL DO NOT click on links like “OMG is this you” etc
He didn’t tell me but I found it this morning. Now home from school and just told me 100s of PCs have now been infected

A link on how to get rid but it’s not easy to do.

Bad link, and I can't find any info whatsoever on a virus of that name. Thanks for the headsup, but the info's incorrect.

The only thing Norton picks up well is memory space and processor usage.
