Just a word of warning that there is another new virus out there. This one
has a new twist in that it fakes being from your ISP administration and
thus looks a little bit more important than most. The return address on
mine was management @amputee.com. Since I own amputee.com, I am the
management and the fraud is obvious to me. For someone who has a more
conventional email address it might be more convincing. From what I've
heard the wording in the message does vary but all of they offer an
attachment that is suppose to fix the problem that you don't really
have. The virus file on my message even came with a password for security.
