> 
> 
> Dear Customer,
> 
> Trend Micro would like to alert you of new variants of Troj_Pretty_Park,
> which are now propagating rapidly. TROJ_PRETTY_PARK is a well-known worm
> Windows executable program that tries to spread itself every 30 minutes
> to all users in the Internet address book. While Trend products have
> detected TROJ_PRETTY_PARK for over 9 months, many other Antivirus
> companies recently reported it. The difference between the new reports
> and the original TROJ_PRETTY_PARK is that the new executable is unpacked
> (File length: 60,928 Bytes compared to 37,376 Bytes) and then repacked
> (37,196 bytes).
> 
> All Trend customers are requested to download the latest pattern file
> #665 that detects all variants of this Trojan.
> 
> You can get more information on this Trojan at:
> <http://www.antivirus.com/vinfo/default.asp>
