>The message below was received very early this morning. I checked my PC and found that it did, indeed, contain the file mentioned. I have no idea of how long that file was in my system, nor whether or not it had time to proliferate itself. Obviously, however, since it was able to defeat my anti-virus software, it may be able to do the same with yours.
