Looks like another AOL IM profile trojan is floating around. It creates a profile that says "Happy Holidays Everyone!!!" and has a link below that to http: // www. buddypicture. net/ When the link is clicked on, your AIM profile is changed. Looks like it's a variant of the RealPHX trojan again. I have updated my webpage appropriatly about this trojan. http://www.wcupa.edu/infoservices/virusinfo/alerts/realphx.htm -Frank ------------------------------------------------------------------ Frank J.
