LOL at this:
It's a polite mass-mailer.

Depends.... technically I guess it's advertising, and they're asking for your permission to email everyone in your PAB, so run at your own risk..
Saying that, looking on various web sites, it installs some active x components which can be removed via add/remove programs.

I got this in our network last Friday, not impressed as we go through that well know company that claim to stop 100% of viruses.
They say as it's not technically a virus they had no cause to stop it...but if a URL for worm is posted in an email I personally think they should have stopped conming in.
They have however, due to the amount of people that phoned and complained, now blocked it.

World's first PC virus (that is politically correct - not the other PC)
