       ******* VIRUS ALERT - W32/ProLin@MM ********


Dear McAfee.com Dispatch Subscriber:

W32/ProLin@MM is an Internet worm that spreads via email.
McAfee AVERT has given it a risk assessment of MEDIUM TO
HIGH-RISK. The email comes with an attachment named
CREATIVE.EXE, which carries the icon of a Shockwave Media
Player application. You may receive the email in this format:

Subject = A great Shockwave flash movie
Body = Check out this new flash movie that I downloaded just
now ... It's Great
Bye
Attachment = creative.exe

If you run CREATIVE.EXE, it finds and alters all .JPG and
.ZIP files on your system and forwards a copy of itself to
everyone in your email address book. Please do not run the
attachment.
