Hi All,
A new varient of the recent worm that exploits the recent IE exploit has
surfaced. This time instead of a link to supposed Britney Spears picture, it
links to a supposed Jessica Alba picture. The url has hit "bandwidth
exceeded", and this will hopefully stop the spreading. It appears to have hit
the gaming [irc] networks also, which is attracting alot of clicks.
