My logs tell me that we received more than the usual number of viruses yesterday.  These were split into two groups, a version of Bagle that was released back in June, and a new worm which Trend Micro calls WORM_STRATION.BD
 
In the samples I looked at, the messages were fake bounces with an executable attachment which had a.dat.pif extension.
 
Here's the writeup on that:

I am seeing lots of .com attachments blocked with Declude.  Random two word subject from many different ip addresses.  Is anyone else seeing them?
