True, but most have classified it as low risk, and not worthy of a separate
advisory.  With the fact several on the list have already seen it, the
status may need upgrading.

I haven't seen an alert from Trend either, but my PCScan picked up a few
around 4:00am.

It seems to also use the MIME header exploit.  This is such a common virus
virus element, maybe Declude should have an option to handle it.
