P3D legitimate virus/worm warning

[Bob Wier <wier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've just received a notice from the Department of Energy that
a re-packaged version of an older virus is spreading rapidly on
the web. 

This only affects Windows Users (not Mac, Linux, etc). You should
be particularly careful if running Outlook Express or Exchange.

Don't panic, just note the following:

SOLUTION:      Do not execute an e-mail attachment named zipped_files.exe as 
               this is the worm program. Update your antivirus software as 
               soon as updates are available. 


Kindly do NOT send this notice to other mailing lists and so forth.

THANKS

              Bob Wier
