>>>>>McAfee.com has seen a large and growing number of computers infected with W32/Fbound.c@MM. This MEDIUM-ON-WATCH RISK virus is a pure mass-mailing worm. It does not carry any other, damaging, payload. The virus sends itself to all users found in the Windows Address book using SMTP. It arrives in an email message containing the following information:

Subject: "Important" or a Japanese subject
Body: [empty]
Attachment: patch.exe

When run, it immediately e-mails itself to all entries in the Windows address book. It does not install itself in any way. It contains the text "I-Worm.Japanize".

As always, McAfee.com recommends that you keep your anti-virus software up-to-date for the best protection.<<<<<
