This is a nasty one. I logged into my yahoo account and my e-mail box was full! I had loads of e-mails from computers which obviously had this worm. They all pretend to be from Microsoft outlining an important security patch and have attachments of between 130k and 160k. Most IT-savvy people would just delete them but a 'normal' home user will open them and believe they have to run the attachment which looks very official and very slick. Befoe they know it, and unknown to them it's got all their correspondent's e-mail addresses and is e-mailing them the same thing continuously.
