That sexy_virgin.scr is a about a year old if I remember correctly. Once you're infected, it sends itself to every email on your computer that it can find.

One of the tgp owners that I post to was infected, but I don't know which one it was. Either Pink World, World Sex or Dr. Bizzaro I am sure. At the time I received the mail, I was using my ldinternet.co.uk email account ONLY to post to tgps. I had sent galleries to the above tgps, and received that virus via my ldinternet.co.uk email address a few days later. There is no way that anyone else even knew about that email address - only the tgps that I had sent galleries to.

Fortunately I'd heard about it before, so I didn't run it. Not that I'm that stupid anyway

Since then I've reformatted my computer (I was going to reformat anyway), so the virus is completely and utterly gone now.
