    I followed the thing you click and it's a odd web page that will
take your E-Bay name and password if you give it. So more Scam than
Virus it appears.
WELL YOU LIKE TO LIVE DANGEROUSLY. NEVER CLICK ON A VIRUS WEB PAGE. WEB
BROWSERS CAN COLLECT THE ADDRESSES OF PEOPLE WHO GO TO THE WEB SITE,
SO YOU ARE ALREADY COMPROMISED.

Please turn off your capslock key.  It makes you look foolish.

Web browsers do not collect anything.  Web _servers_ might.

If any e-mail address was revealed, it was of the guy who posted it. If it had tried to infect my system it would have gone into the collection of other Windows rootkits. (I can always use more.) Lynx is your friend.
