There’s a new virus out there masquerading as a Microsoft update. I think I got this one this morning, and it looks legit. I can see how the less suspicious might be fooled; it even has a purported text file attachment with the name of my virus protection software in the filename.
Be careful out there (cue Mike Post’s theme music).
yup, Linky. I got that in the mailbox several times – never opened it, because I knew my stuff was up to date – looks pretty legit, like it’s from microsoft and everything. Buuuuutttt better safe than sorry, huh? And, nicely enough, that was when my old ISP went belly up and I had to change and so far (knock on batty’s shivered timbers) they haven’t found me again.

Thanks, Steve-
I’ll be on the lookout for it!!
