Since this morning, we are seeing a new e-mail virus that does not
appear to be detectible by current Norton or McAfee virus definitions.
So far, the attachment received has always been named "photos.zip"
with
subject "our private photos".  We are now filtering email on this
basis.  Has anyone else seen this?
