I got one of these in my inbox today, on a unix system it looks like
garbage, under windows it opens a web page to download something as well
as passing on a file called "readme.exe"

more info can be found at:

apparently it's called "nimda" Who names these things.

Also just heard John Ashcroft warning the nation about it after he
outlined what sounded like a complete framework for the abrogation of
civil liberties. What some script-kiddies mailworm has to do with the FBI,
or why he even mentioned it I don't know.
