Has anyone come across a virus with the following message body and 
attached a file called 'Private.zip' which unzips to wendynaked.jpg.exe

I couldn't find any info on Symantecs security response site or Google 
either.

Seen them: started to get them today, about 10 hours ago.

The EXE seems dated 23 Nov, so this is a new virus; no wonder the AV
vendors do not yet know about it; you may wish to send your sample to
them for analysis. (Each new virus is an example where "traditional"
AV fails to protect...)
