Virus Alert - W32/ProLin@MM
The following was received from McAfee...
******* VIRUS ALERT - W32/ProLin@MM ********
W32/ProLin@MM is an Internet worm that spreads via email.
McAfee AVERT has given it a risk assessment of MEDIUM TO HIGH-RISK. The email comes with an attachment named CREATIVE.EXE, which carries the icon of a Shockwave Media Player application. You may receive the email in this format:
Subject = A great Shockwave flash movie
Body = Check out this new flash movie that I downloaded just now ... It's Great
Bye
Attachment = creative.exe
If you run CREATIVE.EXE, it finds and alters all .JPG and ..ZIP files on your system and forwards a copy of itself to everyone in your email address book. Please do not run the attachment.
