I got that too.  Attached is usually a file with a double extension, the
second extension being pif.  I usually will save it to a temp file and run
the virus scanner on it.  But, the virus scanner has beaten me to it and
tells me it is a worm.  So, I delete the file and e-mail completely.

So, not a hoax.

Keiner ist hoffnungsloser versklavt als derjenige, der irrt�mlich glaubt
frei zu sein.

There are none more hopelessly enslaved then those who falsely believe they
are free!

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)
