IE Security hole exploited once again - "britney.jpg" irc worm.

["Tom Russell" <kalleth () nildram co uk>]

I'm not a technical person, but i haven't seen any posts here on the subject yet.
Today, a new virus/worm started spreading over most IRC networks, information below:

It spreads by saying the address of a "picture" file called britney.jpg on irc networks that you are connected to.
For more information (as i probably haven't explained it well) visit the following URL's:
