> A new Word macro virus has been detected, called ShareFun. Once
> infected, by opening an attachment, the virus will send a message with
> the above subject to three random people from your address list,
> containing a document infected with the virus. This behavior will
> continue each time you open a Word document, sending the document that
> you opened. Obviously the potential to randomly distribute sensitive
> documents as well as the virus exists.
>
> Remember, you should ALWAYS HOLD DOWN THE SHIFT KEY WHEN OPENING EMAIL
> WORD ATTACHMENTS to avoid being infected by any Word virus that may be
> present. This message is an extra precaution, the virus scanning tools
> and precautions already in place at Woodward should protect us.
