Hot on the heels of the ‘Postcard From A Friend’, there is a new trend starting.
Below is a copy of an email I received - several copies of it too.
DO NOT open this email as it contains a Trojan Downloader, just Delete it
Virus Name: JS/Psyme also known as HTML/Mht@exp
Spreads through Web Browsing, Downloads Code from the internet, Exploits your system and/or Software vulnerabilities.
Ensure your anti-virus is up-to-date. I recommend AVG Anti-Virus (freeware)which catches these Trojans and opens a ‘Threat Detected’ window.
If you are infected with this update your virus definitions file and reboot into Safe Mode, scan with anti-virus and also scan with ad-aware.
Email will read similar to this, with some variations:
