There seems to be a virus on AIM going around. Beware when someone sends you a link out of the blue, it could be a virus. The title of the link (that I've heard of, anyway) is "IS this you?" or something like that. Always make sure that someone is legitmately sending you a a link or something before you click on it. It may come from a friend, because once infected, it sends it to everyone on your buddy list.
This isn't a hoax, because I know several people who've had it happen to them already.
If you're infected, try the troubleshooting tips here:

Yeah, it's hitting a lot of folks. Here's a direct link to a removal tool.
