Think I've just been sent it (not off you though) Subject was 'Important' and it was a 7kb file.. from an address I don't know. I deleted it without opening the attatchment coz it seemed suspicious.

On the subject there is a different virus has various titles all short and pointless but file sizes are 35k and 41k often zip files. I haven't been infected but have recieved it about 30 times(no exageration) on my address.
