Apparently not, but it's the RoverNet mail that's spreading it.  Here's one
of the many responses I got:

I suggest everyone visit www.symantec.com or www.mcafee.com and download the
free 30day trial anti virus software - I've now been infected 4 times in the
past 4 days by this little b*stard, despite having thought I'd removed it.
Nasty little thing.

It is a win32.hybris.plugin virus - an internet worm that spreads by
attaching it self to all sorts of files. This one it would appear started in
an Email entitled Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Clicking on the
attachment gets it onto your computer where you can then inadvertently send
it to others.
