Download: Norton AntiVirus. It's a virus scan that takes all the bugs out of your computer. If your accepting a file, it'll tell you before you download it, if there's a virus attached to it or not. I suggest you download/buy that. Or, to get rid of that virus that is on AIM. Just delete the program and download it again.

You need to download a virus scan program or buy one and it will get rid of it. If you don't have one, just uninstall AIM and then install it again. That's why you should never click on a link like that.

Anything that is *.pif is a virus.

Download a virus removal program, delete and reinstall AIM.
