  • Answer:

    The problem isn't on MSN but on your computer. You have a virus affecting your MSN software on your computer. It sounds like youhave got a trojan virus, you need to run something like AntiMalwareBytes to remove it, full instructions on how to do this can be found here: http://pctoolbox.co.uk/2010/01/01/generic-steps-to-removing-a-virus-from-an-infected-pc/ Be aware trojans can really affect the system files on your computer and therefore could cause further problems that need to be fixed. Make sure you have a backup of all your data first. you may need to un-install and re-install MSN messenger too. hope this helps. Graham.

Try scanning with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware http://malwarebytes.org/ . And with SUPERAntiSpyware (might sound bogus but its not) from here http://www.superantispyware.com/ . That should get rid of it. It's not "in" your MSN account it's on your computer.
