[XviD-devel] your account rjarfuef

[Michael Militzer]

Hello,

I can only confirm what Edouard wrote: It's indeed a new (and very
aggressive) worm called 'W32/Mimail'. It has been discovered just two
days ago. A detailed description can be found here:

It looks like the malicious attachment has been automatically filtered
out so you had luck, but you should learn to be more suspicious in the
future: We really don't have anything to do with your e-mail account
and you don't even have an account called 'rjarfuef', have you? ;-)
Well, the world is just plain evil...

bye,
Michael
