It's not a virus, it's a Trojan Horse. They're different. From what I read,
this new one requires you to download and try to install a "video codec"
that will enable you to play a pr0n video that you just tried to view that
wouldn't work. 

Of course there is no video, and you aren't missing a codec. It's their way
to entice you to install the Trojan Horse.
