There is a new computer virus out and Norton AntiVirus calls it a Catagory 3 virus. Here is a website about the virus. I have already gotten 3 emails with this virus. So watch out!

Bumping this back up because this has been going around a lot. Norton calls this virus "Dangerous threat type, difficult to contain. The latest virus definitions should be downloaded immediately and deployed." And calls it "Severe".
The fact about this email that makes it go around so much is that when it is sent from an infected computer it will make it say its from somewhere else when it really wasn't. I have got ones saying its from AOL with the virus attachment when it really wasn't from AOL.... They only made it say it was from AOL when it was actully from another email address. Just remember even if it says its from a friend, It probably won't really be from there email.... Most of these emails are blank with the Klez Virus. For More Info check out the Link in the first post.

Note Since the First Post it is now a category 4 Virus...... Norton has 5 categorys that they put these in, 1-5, 5 being the worst...
