Sorry if any of you all got an e-mail from me a couple of days ago that sounded anything like what is written below. My boss told me this morning that he recieved a worm from a bogus e-mail from my computer..(nice huh ) A new virus is quickly spreading. Do not open any suspicious email, especially ones with attachments. The virus will arrive from a known acquaintance or friend because it emails itself to all contacts in the infected machine's address book. If you have any concerns about a particular email, please give us a call and we will check it out for you. See description of virus email below.

Subject: The subject line is randomly chosen from a list carried by the worm. It may be one of the following:

I thought this was interesting...
rather psychedelic...
found this on the net, you might like it...
discothèque
imbrue
Damn it feels good to be gangsta.
The way I feel - Remy Shand
Paradigm Shift
WASSUP!
Know Thyself
Hell
I love you
Please discard if you don't like or agree with our present leadership...
little popup remover
B cannot remember
Yo, WASSUP, B?
an interesting program...
You might not appreciate this...
I think you might find this amusing...
LOL
check this out... hehehe
question...
see you tomorrow.
how are you?
you need to lose weight.
why?
kind of simple, but fun nonetheless.
check it out.


Message: The message body is randomly chosen from a list carried by the worm. It may be one of the following:

I sent this program (Sparky) from anonymous places on the net.
The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear.
There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.
Watchin' the game, having a bud.
Did you ever stop to think that viruses are good for the economy? Maybe the primary creators of the world's worst viruses are the companies that make the Anti-Virus software.
Today is a good day to die...
so, how are you?
the attachment is only for you to look at
you must not show this to anyone...
delete this as soon as you look at it...
Let me know what you think of this...
If you don't like it, just delete it.
thought I'd let you know
you don't have to if you don't want to.

Attachment: The attachment name is randomly generated. It has one of the following extensions

.exe
.pif
.com
.scr
