Good day gentle fellows, 

Sorry to discuss non period stuff in this forum, however....Auraelia is
correct... my company was hit with this same email mess today.... it is
definitely not a hoax... do not open the attachment... it's a zip
file...subject line is blank... it will have the address of someone you
do know... label on the attachment looks something like: Price_08.zip
or .exe Delete it immediately without opening. We're told it contains
some sort of a worm type virus... don't have the word on which one yet.

For those who have made the mistake of opening it... Trend does not yet
have a fix for it, but McAffee does, get an update and blast it, there
could be other virus tools out there to fix... these are the one's I know
about. If you did open the attachment, please take care of it before
making further email communication with your friends... they'll thank you
for it. 

The email may come to you in many forms... usually has the 'address' of
someone you know... it changes 'senders' before it goes to the next
person.. so is very difficult to 'trace'. 

We're hearing that as long as you don't open the zip file, you're fine. 

Good luck, 
Bethoc
