This virus has an attachment that must be executed to cause infection. It is "can/should avoid" virus. Just do not open attachments for a while unless you can confirm they are safe. I have received a mail with the virus both at home. I simply deleted the message without opening the attachments and all went well.

I deleted. The warning said the virus would appear to be innocent. The post was almost word for word like the Yahoo warning. Hope I am wrong.
