It's probably the W32.Netsky.B virus. I receive an update about it this morning, here' the info:

W32.Netsky.B is a mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine to send itself to the email addresses it finds when scanning the hard drives and mapped drives. This worm also searches drives C through Z for folder names containing "Share" or "Sharing," and then copies itself to those folders.

Be careful out there...

Cheers,

Jeff

Hi all,

I received an email from sales@tiico.com and it only had an attachment called "creditcard.zip" and the text that said "see you." I did not and will not open this attachment because I suspect that a virus has tiico's email list and is spreading its mischief. Anyone know anything about this? Be careful.
