Beware...
Alert everyone you know through e-mail not to open an e-mail with"Mail
Server Report" in subject line. I went to the link and it is saying this
one is "True" - BEWARE. Urgent This is a Bad Virus Please don't open!
This one checks out and is a bona fide real virus so hence the warning:
Any email with "Mail Server Report" in the subject line is a new virus and
should not be opened. It comes with an attachment in zip format.
Apparently there is a Zip file attached so be very leery of any thing with
a zip file attached to it.
The message tells you that a worm was detected in an e-mail that you
sent out and asks you to open and install the attachment to 'fix' the
problem. Only, the Zip File IS the problem! DO NOT DO IT! Delete the
e-mail.
This is a real threat.
