You are way behind on this one.

This so far has 24 file names, with 5 different extensions, .pif, .scr,
.exe, .cmd and .zip.

This is by far the fastest spreading virus I have ever seen. Our software
vendor is reporting that in the first 3 hours, infections were seen from
over 8000 uniqie IP addresses and spreading.
