Get the infected MSN Messenger user to change his account password..

Ivan,

Your brother has probably downloaded something like SweetIM, MSN Blocker or
Smiley Central which on computer startup sends advertising to MSN & Yahoo
contacts. Get your brother to remove the offending software as everyone on
your brother's MSN list is getting it too
