Thanks. I just now got one and deleted it without opening.

Damn vireses have hit my email twice today:hammer: ...and I have the latest Norton and the definitions are updated every DAY...they popped in my work and home email with an attachment with an .exe.
I have not executed any of them but keep running Norton to see if it will pick it up....so far, no luck.
What makes it bad is the one in the Sun network says it's from Microsoft....wonder how many Sun employees are stupid enough to fall for an .exe in an email from Microsoft:rll:

Be CAREFUL the Norton and Mcaffee updates JUST came out yesterday. AFter the virus was discovered. In fact if you goto Mcaffe and do an update now you MAY NOT get the update you need to clean this virus - It wont be added to the normal update till THurs...

Mcaffee had an Extra.dat you had to install to sqash these bugs - They may have added it to the updates by now...
