Default VIRUS ALERT

Within the past hour I have recieved two infected e-mails with a file attachment. One was from Tony de Leon/Colonial Tours, subject "Ca Carla de Negri, message body "I send you this file in order to have your advice."
The other was from Pedro Saravia, subject "Incentivo" with the same message body.

This is the SIR CAM Virus as described in an Alert I recieved from McAfee earlier today. The message body is word-for-word as they described. According to McAfee, this one is particularly nasty. Beware.

Default I received the email also

Except mine was from Jorge Rosario at . The attachement was called paxusa.xls.lnk I use hotmail and it said the attachement was virus free. However since I don't know anyone named Jorge Rosario, I didn't download the attachment. Hotmail gives you the option of opening an attachment from it's remote location. When this failed several times, I deleted the email.
