I agree Andy. There are various versions. I believe that this is some sort
of derivative of the "Code Red" virus and there are versions that are server
specific and others, such as I mentioned that are MS Outlook specific. My
warning is a heads-up to all out there that get lackadaisical about these
things. One hopes, after all the events of the past week, that people will
be on their guard about any and all type of security issues, though this
virus has nothing to do with those events. Our company shut down all links
to the Internet this afternoon to prepare for this thing.

It doesn't even need Outlook (Express) on some systems. There is no
silver-bullet "shut this thing off" cure for this one.
