You don't exist. Go away error in LINUX

Q: You don't exist. Go away error in linux

Ans: This is not a viral infection. It comes from programs like writetalk, and wall, if your invoking UID doesn't correspond to a valid user (probably due to /etc/passwd being corrupted), or if the session (pseudoterminal, specifically) you're using isn't properly registered in the utmp file (probably because you invoked it in a funny way).
