I've inspected the executable code, and it reads like a worm. (doh)

Has anyone seen this?

I just got a readme.exe e-mail to me from a dsl.net IP address a few minutes
ago. Odd thing is it sends it's Content-type as audio/x-wav I've added the
following to filter it in procmail:

:0 B
* >50000
* <90000
* ^Content-Type: audio/x-wav;
* ^     name="readme.exe"
