A rather interesting thing about these viruses is that they all seem to have a header that says X-Mailscanner: Found to be clean I suspect this is just another attemp to make it look real even though it's a virus. The really bad thing is that it is really hard, once you know this header is there and it is faked, to actually see this or any other header in messages when viewing them with MS outlook related products. The sad thing is that some unsuspecting Outlook user may actually think this is a real "returned mail failed delivery" message and may actually open the attachment to get details and fry his/her computer or network. I can't believe how absolutely real these messages look accept, of course, for the X-Mailscanner header, which I had seen before in a file that was reported later to have contained a virus. Wow! I'm just glad I wasn't using Outlook/Outlook Express to view those messages. (Or Windows for that matter.)
