ive just received an email warning me that if the above adress should add me to its msn, i shouldnt accept it as its a virus, which will then make the same offer to everyone in my account. has anyone else heard of this? a cursory search of snopes and google revealed nothing.

Old, old hoax. See the hoax-slayer website.

I'd post a link but it's a blacklisted site, just google for 'MSN Contact List Virus Hoax'

Check the virus libraries and maybe the virus hoax libraries of e.g. McAfee or Norton. There you find answers to these kind of questions.

Hmmm, it is not in the Virus Information Library of McAfee, at least not when searching under Zezim.
