Oh, great. F-Secure says they’re seeing an alarming spike in worms spreading over instant messaging channels:
Recently we have noticed an increase in IM (Instant Messaging) worm numbers. We are regularly adding detection for new Bropia worm variants. The last one, Bropia.K, appeared yesterday, on Sunday. Today there appeared 2 more MSN worms: a variant of Kelvir and a new worm called Sumom.
When virus writers get into turf wars, you and I are usually caught in the crossfire.
