AOL Chat Virus?

by richv . Updated 25 years, 10 months ago

A colleague of mine who is a regular AOL Instant Messanger (AIM) user noticed that her mouse cursor is moving around the screen without touching the mouse. Someone told me that her computer was probably infected from running AIM. Is there a remedy for protecting a computer besides Not to run AIM.

Also, what’s the Best way to eradicate the “virus” (hopefully she won’t have to reinstall Windows NT.

Thanks for any information you can provide.
