You’ve heard about the e-mails that show up and pose themselves as coming from your bank. They give you some line about needing you to update your contact information. Well, the latest virus going around is disguised in an e-mail attachment that goes something like this:

Dear Sir/Madam,

We have logged your IP-address on more than 30 illegal Websites.

Important:
Please answer our questions!
The list of questions are attached.

Yours faithfully,
Steven Allison

When you open the attachment — BAM! You’re infected. I have no details as of yet concerning what exactly happens when you’re infected. Just know that when you see an e-mail like this, just ignore it…and stay away from illegal Web sites.
