This worm was discovered yesterday by www.symantec.com, makers of Norton AntiVirus.

Do not open the e-mail or attachment. If you can see the subject line "Mawanella" in your mail folder, just delete it immediately.

The threat is directed at Microsoft Outlook's mail client.

As usual, don't forget to have the latest anti virus software in your computer. And don't forget that anti virus software is almost useless unless you have installed the lastest monthly update and have it actively running on your computer.

Surf Safe. Wear an Anti-Virus Condom!
