A coffee can full of hypodermic needles

you think I should put this picture On Myspace? http://img683.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture57.jpg, I think my eyes look weird. do I look cross eyed in that pic to you? lol'
Clearly, it's a virus. It causes someone to begin a conversation with 'hey click this' instead of something like, say, 'hi.' If someone IMs you with that, tell them to go to jayloden.com and download Aimfix after they eat a dick for being so stupid.
Can you imagine if there were viruses in real life that got you to randomly convince strangers to infect themselves? You'd walk up to people you haven't talked to in years and say stuff like, 'HEY! Put your hand in this coffee can. There might be money inside!' when really the coffee can is full of hypodermic needles.

When you're designing a virus that tricks a large amount of people into downloading infected files, you want to use a language they understand. In this case, it's the language of "OMG look at this pic on Myspace LOL." Not to help virus authors, but why not disguise a virus as a YouTube link? YouTube is generally linked to more than Myspace, plus I think the Myspace crowd already has enough problems with computers.

- not knowing how to not get raped by strangers over the internet
- setting bikini babes as tiled background images
- liking shitty music, then forcing everybody who visits a page to listen to it

ahh, the typical myspacer.
you missed a few:
they do not know that a bulletin posted by fifty of their other friends with the exact same title (maybe even containing nonsensical alphanumeric code? (for example: "$250 for a free iPod?! LOL OMG - sample e0112z" (they do not recognize impossibilities))) and with a mysterious link is probably not a good thing to click into
[I apologize for that extreme sentence]
thereafter,
they do not realize that they did not post this same mysterious bulletin, and yet it shows up as one of their posted bulletins
thereafter the thereafter,
they do not know how to change their freaking password.
also,
they (for the most part) don't know how not to be a pain in the ass
Anonymous, FYI, I did get a free iPod from the Internet. You have to make the scam work for you
