Security Alert -- beware of attached ZIP files

["Mark Jurik" <mark@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Sobig.e virus is spreading as an email with an attached .zip file.  
Since Sobig.e can spoof any FROM: address, beware of zip files you were not 
explicitly expecting.

Initial analysis by antivirus companies indicated that the mass-mailing 
computer worm, called Sobig.E, doesn't have a malicious payload. However, e-
mail service provider MessageLabs believes spammers will use the virus's 
mail program on victims' computers to send their messages.
