Hotmail Virus

Hi Guys

Anyone else had this virus 'Fotos' (?) that seems to be affecting Hotmail and if so have you found the way to remove it ?

Don't miss out the underscore and when you have removed it change password to your account.

Many thanks -- followed this and 100% result. Maybe my imagination, but the system as a whole seems to be running a bit faster. Can't help but wonder what the object of the virus was.

Mike.
