About the MyPicture virus, I found this :

MyPicture.bmp.vbs - VBS.Illen: this combines features of both a virus and a worm, and acts as a trojan dropper. If mIRC is installed on your computer, the virus modifies the c:\mirc\script.ini and c:\mirc\mirc.ini so that the virus tries to send itself to all users in the channels you go to. Read more on

I also found this removal tool, but I don't know if it works (I haven't got the virus ! ):

Hope this helps ...
