There is a new Virus appearing in the form of an email, supposedly originating from Microsoft. The virus normally arrives via email with one of the following subject names: Re: My application, Re: Movie, Cool screensaver, Screensavers, Re: My details, Your password, Re: Approved (Red. 3394-65467), Approved (Ref. 38446-263), Your details.
The email appears to come from support@microsoft.com and it contains the I-Worm/Palyh (AKA Mankx) Virus. DO NOT OPEN THE FILE - Delete it !!

This virus came to my computer twice yesterday and once the day before but was immediately deleted by Trend's PC-Cillin the best virus software I have ever had at 39.00 a year. You do get what you pay for and the rest is of little value IMHO

I've been telling people for years, stay the hell away from getting email through Microsoft and switch to Netscape and you won't have email virus problems.
