Do NOT open e-mails with the subject line: "New photos from my party!"


The My Party E-Mail virus looks like a harmless URL, but the victim clicking 
on it will infect his or her machine with the My Party virus, which then 
mails itself out to the list of addresses in the victim's Microsoft Outlook 
database. That could potentially cause congestion in corporate e-mail servers.

The My Party virus doesn't appear to carry any other dangerous payload, such 
as one that deletes files, though antivirus tool vendors TruSecure and 
Symantec have determined that there is a Trojan horse in the virus. The 
Trojan horse sends e-mail about the spread of the My Party virus to a 
particular e-mail address, napster@gala.net <mailto:napster@gala.net> .

What to Watch For 
The virus arrives with the subject line "New photos from my party!" The body 
of the message says "Hello! My party...It was absolutely amazing! I have 
attached my web page with new photos! If you can please make color prints of 
my photos! Thanks!"

If you receive e-mails with the above subject line or attachment, immediately 
DELETE them from your Inbox and Deleted Items folder.
