Subject: WARNING: A New E-Mail Virus Is On The Loose....

Importance: High

There's a new e-mail virus out on the Internet. The virus is in an
attachment with the name: ANNAKOURNIKOVA.JPEG.VBS. It may also appear as
ANNAKOURNIKOVA.JPEG. Do not open any attachments with either of those names
(or any .JPEG, or .VBS, e-mail attachment).

Symantec released a brief warning earlier this afternoon (included below)
which included minimal information on this virus:

___________________________

The Symantec AntiVirus Research Center (SARC) has confirmed a new

mass-mailing worm. SARC is currently analyzing the worm.

The worm is being reported in an attachment named ANNAKOURNIKOVA.JPEG.VBS.



Platinum Support recommends that you filter attachments with a VBS extension

if you have not already done so.

More information will be available later at:
