Well many of my friends have "sent" this today over AIM.

It looks like this
(Insert random message here)
www.(something)/image044.PHP

The way to spot this is that .PHP is not an image file. I have received this from way too many people. Just letting you all know, in case someone out there doesnt.

Just another note, that transmits through MSN as well.

To be safe, everytime you get a link, ask the person what it is.
No reply = not safe
"what link?" = not safe

Its not like you get links in everyday chats (well I don't anyway).

Never click links in IM's, and have your people email them instead. Problem avoided.

So many of my friends have this, its really funny.

I'm just getting spammed with those pointless messages.

Today the message seems to be "FUNNY IDIOT: randomlink"
