Not sure where I should post this,but here it is.
About a week ago I started getting e-mail from several
address's that claimed to be from microsoft.I was
suspisious so I just deleted them,but they keep coming.
I did open 2 or 3 that were failed delivery messages
because I have had a few friends that I have sent
things to that had a full mailbox, but then I noticed that
most of these messages were the same size and filling up
my mailboxes in both yahoo and hotmail.Can anyone tell me
what these are (I'm afraid to open them) and what I can do
about them.Here's a description.

Security Assistance/Current Internet Critical Pack-154K
Microsoft Message System/Bug Message-142K
Internet Message Storage System/Message Return to Sender-
142K
Microsoft Corperation Customer Bullitin/New Net Upgrade-
154K
Microsoft Network Storage System/Undeliverable Message-
142K
MS Corparation Customer Bulletin/Newest Microsoft
Security Pack-154K
Network Email Delivery Service/Announcement-142K
Microsoft Internet Security Department/New Net Pack-155K

I have scanned for virus's and with Spybot S&D,both with
the latest updates,but found nothing.
Thank you for your assistance,Bob

Hello
it is a virus (probably SWEN)
it is not coming from Microsoft
getting it doesn't mean you are infected - as the attachement has to
be executed to infect your comp
you should read the posts on the NGs that speak about it
