Virus (Worm) warning for this forum in particular

Over the last couple of days I have received a number of e-mails that appeared to be from forum participants. While the names were familiar the e-mail addresses were subtley altered.

These e-mails contained an attachment that launched a dialog box immediately upon its receipt, clicking on the attachmnent icon (paperclip) was not necessary.

Once the worm attacks the system it replies to all unread email messages with itself attached to the email. The email has the same subject and message body as the original email. The worm also installs a keystroke logger and looks for credit card and other personal info.

Damn, as if I din't have enough things to aggravate me this comes along.
