This was on my email this morning, it said to download
the attachment for the latest security patch. However,
Norton has removed the attachment because it has a 'bug'
so what do I do now? Getting in touch directly with
microsoft if next to impossible. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks, Alice
 
Alice,

Although Microsoft sends notices and announcements regarding patches via
email, it **Never** sends the actual patches as attachments. The
attachment in this email contains a virus, so delete the email and any other
similar ones that follow.

This email is a hoax that has been around for quite a while, and you are
probably getting it now because your email address is in the email address
book of someone who has opened the attachment and caught the virus.
