Mydoom, Novarg, WORM–MIMAIL.R

Hey folks…. public service announcement time.. if you receive an unexpected email with a subject line including the phrase “Mail Delivery System” or “Mail Transaction Failed”, with an attachment, don’t open that attachment! It’s quite possibly a new virus that’s spreading via Windows machines. Read more about the still-unnamed virus at Yahoo Business.

    I say go ahead and distribute it. With a payload that supposedly DoS’s SCO, it can’t be all bad.
