I got this email today... pretty clever on the virus writers part... except I have a mac and am smart enough otherwise to know it was BS...

"
The sample file you sent contains a new virus version of mydoom.j.
Please clean your system with the attached signature.

Sincerly,

+++ Attachment: No Virus found
+++ Bitdefender AntiVirus - www.bitdefender.com"

it was from SUPPORT@SYMANTEC.COM which makes it look even more legit. There was a .PIF file attached...

people who still open unknown attachements are stupid. And anyone who thinks symantec (or any other respectable company for that matter) is going to send around virus fixes/patches as attachments are also stupid. How long has the Internet been mainstream now? God - it's not hard... don't open unknown/unexpected attachments. Heck, you don't even have to know file types/extensions. welcome to the 90s people... jesus.
