EDIT: If you use IE do NOT follow the links because it will delete Media Player!

Word of warning don't follow the links within the post by Richard M (done some digging) and found the following:
ro.htm has "Exploit-CodeBase" trojan
and
1.php creates 0000007a.vbs which has "VBS/Inor" Trojan within

The article does warn you but I'll warn people just in case:
If you use IE do NOT follow the links because it will delete Media Player!

Protect yourself by using Firefox first. ;)
