URGENT. Read the following and be aware of a malware link circling its way via Skype PMs.

Edit: More information in the second post. If you have it, read to the second post to learn how to remove it.

Excerpt from Faction Leader Chat:

Champ Wrote:********** VIRUS ALERT ***********
Please be aware that a worm is circulating through some of Discovery's Skype circles, and it could make its way to you.
An infected computer sends you a message saying "lol is this your new profile pic?" with a goo.gl link with your name in it. DO NOT CLICK ON THIS LINK.
Good news is, it only links to a .zip file. If you have opened the .zip, DO NOT RUN THE EXE. DELETE THE FILE.
If you have clicked on the exe and ran it, immediately perform a virus scan, a boot scan if possible. Thank you.
*********************************

Normal safe internet stuff, guys. Be sure to know what the links you're clicking are leading to.
