OK, just started battling a new virus here at work a couple of hours ago and decided to warn everyone here (cause it's nasty!).

It is called "W32.Novarg.A@mm" and is spread via an e-mail attachment. Symantec categorizes this a level 4 security risk (severe), so be sure to update your virus definitions and DO NOT open any attachments!

S**T!!!!!

I got an e-mail at my school account this past Friday that came from "System Administrator" with the subject line "Undeliverable: Test" and I clicked on the f***ing attachment "Untitled"! :eek: I can't believe I wasn't even aware of this! Since all I get to that e-mail account is school related stuff or confirmation of deliveries by Amazon vendors, I thought it had to do with either of those. I ran a system scan right after and nothing was detected :confused:
