msn messenger virus

ok one my friends got a msn messenger virus by clicking on a link from someone in their contacts that messages people randomly pretending to be them. Problem is i dont know which virus it is so i'm not entireles sure how to fix it... so i'm just wondering if anyone here knows?

so from what i know, when you sign in the mouse freezes, then it looks like someone is sending that 'click on this pic its you' ( or something) to everyone.

.. and then some kinda message that says msn messenger has to clean out somethign about hackers, it takes 5 mintes and your mouse and keyboard will be locked. ".. something like that

not sure if it really made sense, but like i've tried googling this but theres quite alot of ther msn virus removal methods for different virus, so i think i need to go over to my friends house later to see whats going on. but ya i'm jus wondering if anyone knows what i'm talking about here? lol and somehow identify the virus for me so i can find the proper removal method.

thanks~

Jam it back in, in the dark.

ya.. i just used nod32 to scan the computer. Hopefully i think i got rid of the dam virus grrr..

There's nowhere I can't reach.
