Wow, check out this latest virus attempt.  This actually came from comcast, but look at how official looking the message body is.  It actually contained an attachment called PACK965.exe, which was the Win32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] virus.  Thankfully RAV is already catching this at our gateways already--I've noticed that F-Prot and McAfee have done dat updates today, as well.
 
Make sure you definitions are up-to-date, we have caught about 50 of these in the last hour, so this may be the next big wave...
