It's not a Messenger virus, but an exploit of the document.open() vuln in IE (that's already got a patch out I think...). It just happens that rather than mail it to everyone, the jerks that wrote it used Messenger to get everyone to go to their webpage. They could just as easily (and probably more successfully) use ICQ or AIM.
