It looks like there maybe a new variant of the virus MyDoom worm. We have
seen the
following:

RE: I still love you  fLctv

Error 551: We are sorry your UTF-8 encoding is not supported by the
server, so the text
was automatically zipped and attached to this message.

The file attached is message.zip and unzips to message.exe

I am analyzing the file for behavior and will update, but has anyone else
seen this yet
?

The latest Nassoc DAT does not cover this.
