Just clicked on to your link & found myself getting a download from Proxomitron - with no warning whatsoever & no chance for information about wotthehell it was.

Exited fairly fast . So tell me what I just missed...?

I also not with Irony that MyDoom.B adds an entry pointing www.microsoft.com to 0.0.0.0 in the hosts file, however part of it's payload is to DoS Microsoft. It neuters itself which is kinda amusing.

One preformatted hosts file is available here (www.everythingisnt.com)

There are stacks around, use Google (http://www.google.com) to find more.
