        Viruses such as these are only of risk if they're executed by
your mail client. Outlook 2003 doesn't allow this by default (you need
to save the file first), am I right to feel complacent? Of course I do
have AV on the mail gateway, I'm just polling to see how confident
fellow admins are with Outlook 2003's. Is it taking steps in the right
direction to protect the use from viruses such as this?

                There is a new virus spreading rapidly. The AV vendors
are working on it.

                 

                This one is going to be bad, as it is using zip
attachments as well as pif, scr and exe.

                 

                Be prepared.
