******* VIRUS ALERT - W32/ProLin at MM ********

Dear McAfee.com Dispatch Subscriber:

W32/ProLin at MM is an Internet worm that spreads via email. McAfee AVERT has given it a risk assessment of MEDIUM TO HIGH-RISK. The email comes with an attachment named CREATIVE.EXE, which carries the icon of a Shockwave Media Player application. You may receive the email in this format:

Subject = A great Shockwave flash movie Body = Check out this new flash movie that I downloaded just now ... It's Great Bye Attachment = creative.exe

If you run CREATIVE.EXE, it finds and alters all .JPG and .ZIP files on your system and forwards a copy of itself to everyone in your email address book. Please do not run the attachment.
