I was on msn and someone sent me a link saying "click the link for cool pics of us" but when i clicked it i got a virus! I think it's called blackworm virus or something like that. Does anyone know what to do or how to fix it or something? Please help!

Try scanning it using http://www.avast.com or http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1 Those are the only two free ones I know that others have used and they liked it.
Otherwise, get a trial version of norton or mcafee and at least get rid of that worm.
If you have trouble quaranting that worm or if you cant get rid of it, then contact me through my profile and I can help you manually get rid of it.

Buy a good antivirus. Or format your computer and install WinXp again.
