Here is virus I found out about at http://www.scambusters.org/viruses.html.  
IRC/Stages Worm.  An Internet worm that began spreading rapidly on 6/19/03. 
The worm uses Microsoft Outlook to send copies of itself to all entries in the 
address book and through installations of Pirch, ICQ and mIRC.  It also spreads 
to all available mapped drives on your system.  If the attachment is run, the 
user sees a list of jokes while the worm infects the system and attempts to 
send copies of itself to all addresses in Outlook address book.
