This digg post says,

"AOL's instant messaging service has been hit by a virus which downloads spyware onto computers via a special website."

Whatever.  I'm not too concerned.  But the comments say it all. 

D14BL0:  "Special website"? You mean AOL.com?

diggthiscrap:  They've isolated the virus, it seems to be called "AIM".

My sentiments exactly. #technology
