Some interesting facts about this thing...

It will expire at the end of the month which means that this could only be a test to see how well it spreads.

It will show up in your inbox from someone that you know


The simple thing is, don't just click on any exe or what ever that a friend or anyone you don't know might send you.

I'll see if I can dig up some more info about this thing.
