I have been researching a bit further in the latest pandemic trojan to hit
this last weekend, wondering how it got past me and found this:

According to Symantec's information below, this worm might well spread
even without your email client set up and running:

".... [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine
to spread itself. It attempts to spread through file-sharing networks,
such as KaZaA and IRC, and attempts to kill antiviral and personal
firewall programs running on a computer." ...

Interesting.
