I got bit by it on Sunday and it was a real PITA. The infected email I got arrived a couple of hours before Symantec put updated Virus defs on line. Today alone, I've rec'd over 150 infected emails (that Norton has squelched, thankfully.)

Dear PDML'ers
A new virus is spreading rapidly. It was upgraded to the highest risk level by
my antivirus vendor last night, and this morning I found the first infected
email in my PDML mail account. Which means that someone on the list is already
infected.

Here's a link to F-Secure's info on the malice:

There is also another virus that is very active in these parts nowadays; the
WORM_MIMAIL.R virus. It seems that someone on the list has caught that one as
well.

Time for protection update, folks.

Cheers,
Jostein
