Inform your users...this is an evil one.
------------------------------------------------

A spam message containing a link that leads to a "click here to remove" page
has been distributed largely.

In addition to the fact that it sends the user's email address to the
spammers, it also points to a web page that asks to scroll it. This page
uses the Drag and Drop vulnerability in Internet Explorer, so when the page
is scrolled, the exploit runs a proxy backdoor. Currently it downloads and
runs Backdoor.Win32.Agent.ce but since it is controlled by the spammers it
could be changed at any time.
