You aren't the only one. My mail system processed over a thousand
of these blasted things overnight. I had over 200 in my mailbox

Fortunately it took only two quick commands to wipe them,
matching on a portion of the virus content.
I finally caved in and modified my libmilter based filter to
substring-match elements of the virus in the body of the email
and reject it outright, in real time.
