It's a modification of a prior "macro" virus, but the
alarm is quite genuine and serious (for a change).

Those running PCs with any MAPI complient e-mail software
are at risk (Win95/98/NT), particularly from all Microsoft
products (Express, etc). There is some indication that Netscape
is subject also.

Anyone who is concerned should check out one of the anti-virus
sites (this is actually a Trojan Horse), such as Symantec.

73's and safe computing!
