  Microsoft disables Live Messenger links
Time: 08:06 EST/13:06 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Chris Hedlund

Microsoft has shut down links to some websites in the 2009 builds of Windows Live Messenger. According to the Vole's blog, disabling the feature was designed to prevent the spread of a malicious worm. The worm requires users to click a link within a message, upon which it will load a webpage that downloads the worm to your PC and then it sends the same message to people in your contact list.
