I received this at work today and my personal email account has had some return

mail saying I sent out a virus. I think maybe someone with my name in their

address book actually has the virus and not me because I haven't received any

files or emails like those listed below. So, if you recieve a file from me

don't open it - I haven't sent anything : )

Just wanted to warn everybody. This came from my corporate IT department so I

know it's valid. They have also had all of us update our virus protection

files.

URGENT MESSAGE TO ALL PC USERS

DO NOT OPEN E-Mail attachments that you are not expecting, especially with the

file types of .pif, .scr, .exe, .cmd, .bat, or .zip. The subject line of

the e-mail will likely be:

-test

-hi

-hello

-Mail Delivery System

-Mail Transaction Failed

-Server Report

-Status

-Error

A new worm named either W32.Novarg.A@mm or Win32.Mydoom.A has been discovered on

the Internet and it appears that it's already inside DuPont. This worm spreads

via E-Mail attachments with the file types listed above.

If you receive one of these messages, simply delete it. You may get the message

multiple times from different addresses.
