What has happened here is that the affected person clicked on a link from someone's email address that he/she trusted. Turns out that email address had been hijacked. It isn't actually a virus, and it doesn't do anything to your computer. It just hijacks the email address and uses it to send out more links to the contacts it finds. I did this, and all I had to do to stop it was change the password for my affected email account. Worked like a charm.
