Re: ooohhh! So informative!
Well they mentioned that it uses a .com file and installs stuff in the Windows system directory - this obviously rules out AIM users on Macs or *NIX. I'd be willing to bet that anyone running Win9X/NT/2K/XP and possibly even Vista is at risk, since it seems to be exploiting AIM itself rather than Windows (it just uses some base Windows mechanisms to complete the infection).

How about you try to make a constructive comment next time?
