There's a virus going around that seems to be fairly commonplace of a sudden, and since we've been seeing this at my workplace (though we've not been infected) it seems likely that quite a number of UK internet users are already infected, and infecting others.
The virus as seen here comes in an email titled "Photos from my party" and has an attachment. DO NOT OPEN IT!
Full details of this virus are available at the following URL: http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.myparty@mm.html
Hope this is an appropriate place for this warning. It struck me as being the kind of virus that could spread like wildfire through friends at a community like this one.
