Has anyone else ever received a virus from yahoo answers?

A friend of mine was looking for an answer about computer problems on this site and clicked on what a person recommended he do to fix his problem. Right after that his computer got thrown to a loop and froze up. Has anyone else had that happen to them and can you get the person in trouble who caused it?

    Yahoo is well known and second only to AOL for vermin.

    Run a firewall and a decent, up to date virus protection program always.
