I haven't seen anything about this on any of the lists I belong to, so
thought I'd pass this along. New virus, attacks Microsoft IIS web
servers, causes damage on client PC, spreads through outlook (haven't I
heard that someplace before?), and the scary part: you might get it just
by surfing to an infected web server!
>From CNN:
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The FBI is investigating a new computer worm that
surfaced Tuesday and is considered so aggressive that computer security
experts urged people not to surf the Web until they have updated their
antivirus programs.
