And most important, don't forget to delete the infected attached file from
your attachments directory. You'll recognize it. Double clicking that file
is what actually activates the worm. So if you didn't delete it now, there
might be some danger that some time in the future you'll see this file in
your folder and open it to see what it is.

Here's a good info source about it:
