things like emoticons ask you to subscribe and they nick your address book and email everybody. its not a virus but something you have either subscribed to or given a login to.

Send me the link via PM if you want Tommy , ill check it out , my ESET usually picks up on these things instantly.
Also if you need a *cough* for the full version of Malwarebytes .. it will provide real time protection as well as autoupdating.

Another good program to run through your PC for any hidden nasties is Spybot Search and Destroy.
Version 2.0 is out , but to me its too bloated with all sorts of extra crap your never gonna need..im sticking with version 1.6.2
