That's odd. Yahoo Groups sent out a notice saying they were being bombarded by
this new virus (technically, it is
actually a worm). I got the impression they were successful in blocking it.
Maybe not. Maybe this is some variation on
that new worm.

It looks like this:

From F-secure web site:

Payload

The worm has a dangerous payload. If the date is equal to 3 (3rd of February,
3rd of March, etc) and the worm's
UPDATE.EXE file is run, it destroys files with those extensions on all
available drives:

*.doc
*.xls
*.mdb
*.mde
*.ppt
*.pps
*.zip
*.rar
*.pdf
*.psd
*.dmp

For all you folks running Windows computers who opened or viewed any of those
attachments, make sure you get your
computer cleaned up ASAP.
