Help: movie.avi.pif

This .PIF file worm spreads using mIRC. It modifies c:\mirc\script.ini and will attempt to send itself to other IRC users from the infected users machine. This file should be deleted.

A significance of this worm is that even if "show extensions" is selected in Windows, the extension does not show for this file. As an attachment it might be seen as "movie.avi" without the .pif extension. Also in a browse of the folder where the file may be located, the .pif extension is not visible.

A file fix is available for this virus. Before downloading, please read our disclaimer on all software downloadable from this site. Download it here.
