Yes, another virus is making its way around, and it's a
nasty one -- nastier than Anna, the Love Bug or any of the
recent worms and viruses you've heard of. It's the
"NakedWife" virus, and it arrives with the subject line
"FW: Naked Wife" -- you're supposed to think it's a picture
of someone's missus in the buff. When you open it, it
ravages your Windows system, deleting crucial files, and
then taunts you in a dialog box. Don't open it! Delete it
promptly. Once again, don't open any suspicious attachment,
even if it's from someone you trust -- these viruses use
your email address book to spread themselves, sometimes
before you realize what you've done.
