Thanks for the warning arniebear. I've been hearing about this virus for the past week on the news but haven't known anyone that received this email. They said it looks pretty realistic and it sure does - it would definitely scare me at first too!

they use email generator works like key generator, or sometimes they get ur email from ur friend's trojan infected computer, and i think u heard about those workers from AOL are selling email adresseses to spammers and hackers back then.

Yeah it looks so official it makes you jump, but I figured if the CIA really was interested the men in black would be at my door. Since this email came to my AOL main account that I have had for 10 years and only use for business I new something was up. As for the PM from Steve I got one too I think he is just desperate for an answer to his problem, personally I think his burner is dead.

Thanks for the info it was a good read, and explained a lot. If you look at my aol posted email you will see the txt file that was the attathment, the one that say NortonAntivirusDeleted, guess it is self-explanatory after reading your sites, i.e. it will disable your antivirus. Considering this is an old virus you would think they would have found a way to stop it, what a pain.
