There is a site http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/hoax.html
that you can go to to check out all slightly suspect things - they have an enormous list of viruses and so called viruses. Sometimes the 'virus' itself is the people sending it all over the place.....I am not saying yours is here David - I haven't been to check. Just that this is a REALLY useful site to keep bookmarked so that when in doubt...CHECK!
Happy surfing guys....
