Hotmail Login Virus?

system · 2007-07-27T09:42:48.000Z

When I log into hotmail, Avast tells me - A Virus was found!
File name: http://by107fd.bay107.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/HoTMaiL?curmbox=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001&a=1fc2ab3b38b281f7d530a2cd2322d668c99d61dd761dc121b50fe4eed3c5a4a2&fti=yes

Malware name: VBS:Malware [script]
type: virus/worm
VPS Version: 000761-0, 27/07/2007

and gives me option only to abort connection.

When I do the the following virus alert appears -
filename: C:\Users\ScottMcdadeWilson\AppData\Local\Temp\Low\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\XPW6R0W7\HoTMaiL[2].htm

This has never happened before - and i thus cannot get into hotmail - can someone please advise?
