It's actually W32.Frethem.K@mm is a worm, and is a variant of W32.Frethem.B@mm.
Check http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.frethem.k@; mm.html I got 3 messages sent to the list [EMAIL PROTECTED] from [EMAIL PROTECTED] and 5 messages from [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the message as described in the above URL. I picked up those messages on the other W98 notebook before shutting it down. When I re-started that notebook, my C: drive was empty. It seemed to have screwed the FAT, because the disk space shows 1GB free out of 9GB, which is correct. Investigating whether it is a result of this virus. Sending this note as a precaution. Perhaps it might be a good idea to clean the virus before shutting down.
