Windows Live Messenger Virus.

by backs999 Dec 23, 2011 10:06PM PST

I seem to have a virus on my windows live. for some reason i am sending messages to contacts for example "lol you there" "lolcheck this out (link)". i have noticed that every time this happens i am signed into 2 computers.

one obviously being mine, but the second is called "Home-Computer" once i sign out of this the messanges stop.

ive performed a virus scan and i cannot find anything virus's and it also seems to send messanges when my computer is not even turned on.

anyone know how to fix this annoying problem?

thanks alot.
