there's a facebook virus going around - you get a message in your inbox from a friend saying 'watch this vid'.
you click, it then asks to update your flash player.spread the word.
it happened to my wife, cleaning off my laptop now :(

Did it ask you to download the update or just auto-ed onto your system.

UPDATE: it's been around for a couple months...
it's a link to a video, then you get to the site and an adobe flash updater prompt comes up...clicking that installs the virus apparently...i did a system restore point (start > help & support > ...) to last week and it looks like it's fixed.
