Howdy all...

I have a few customers of mine that are getting e-mails that are a little off...

I don't really know where to start with this.  Basically, they are
getting e-mails to themselves from themselves at a different domain.

A file is attached (I am not including it in this e-mail but will send
it to those who request it should they so desire) in a zip named
"Info_prices.zip" within the zip is a file called "Text5546.exe".

I have Googled the file name for both the zip and executable and am
coming up with nothing.

OH - the subject line is just "FW:" it's a forwarded message that is blank.

I went to Symantec to try to submit a copy of the virus but apparently
I have to own a copy of their AV product and we don't use it here at
work.  Also, the vendor we do use is showing nothing in the a/v scan
AND they don't have a virus submit page either.

Anyone have any advice?  I fear that this may be something new, but
don't know how to confirm it.
