From Common Sense Security
Be vary careful about clicking on a link in an instant message. There are
several new worms that have surfaced in the last couple of days that
attempt to download Trojans that allow a hacker to take over your computer.
The messages say "omg this is funny!" or "lol! see it! u'll like it" and
contain a link to a web site. Clicking on the link will infect your computer
with the worm, which then sends itself out to all of your MSN Messenger
contacts, and downloads the Trojans. One of the worms tries to disable
antivirus programs on the infected computer.
Make sure your antivirus program is up to date, and don't click any IM
links!
