New virus in town

A New Email Virus in town. watch your e-mail
If you receive an email whose subject heading reads "new photos from my party!" please do not click on the attachment. Although the email states that the attachment is a Web page, it is really a virus program.
The virus will send itself to everyone on your name and address book, and also load a back door trojan on your machine. This trojan will allow someone to remotely access your machine at a later date.

The email will come from someone you know because they clicked on the attachment, compromised their machine with the virus and sent it to everyone on their name and address book -- including you. If you receive this email, please let the person know you received a virus from them. If you get infected, the latest version of McAfee will remove the virus.
The email looks like:

Subject: new photos from my party!
Body: Hello!

My party... It was absolutely amazing!
I have attached my web page with new photos!
If you can please make color prints of my photos. Thanks!

Attachment: www.myparty.yahoo.com
