OT Thread, another virus spreading quickly:
cnn.com

The virus states, "Hi: Check This!"

But the attachment is called "AnnaKournikova.jpg.vbs"

McAfee's anti-virus team gave the destructive virus a ranking of "high" Monday afternoon after it had been found in more than 50 enterprise companies, including Fortune 500 firms.

Upon execution, the worm copies itself to the Windows directory, and then sends the file as an attachment to every address listed in an infected user's Microsoft Outlook address book.

Additionally, it will attempt to launch a browser directed to a particular Web site on January 26 of every year.
