Subject: [WWWEDU] admin: look out for MyDoom virus emails

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to post a quick note about the latest email virus going around.
It's called MyDoom, and it's already become the fastest-spreading email virus 
to
date. When you open an email attachment receiving the virus, not only does it
send the virus to everyone in your email address book, it also installs spyware 

on your computer so hackers can collect passwords and other sensitive data from 

your computer. Emails may be spoofed so they appear to be addressed by people
you know, even if they don't have the virus.

Here's an article about the virus from the washington post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A50582-2004Jan26.html

So, as always, be wary of opening any attachments you're not expecting from
someone, even from a trusted source...
