Actually the "Lump of coal" virus  is a hoax.  Check out this link to
Symantec's web site.

http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/lump.of.coal.hoax.html , many
other sites are also reporting it as a hoax, search for "lump of coal" and
virus on www.hotbot.com.

But it never hurts to be cautious......
