Sorry for the post. I wanted to alert everyone about a really bad virus. It is the Klez. This one wipes out all the data on your computer and randomly generates random subject lines and fakes the "from" fields on e-mails.
More information and ways to get rid of it are here:

I just got this virus from a mailing list a couple of days ago, but didn't open the attachment.
Don't open any attachments unless you know they are and are expecting them.
The unfortunate thing is some of the Outlook mail programs automatically open attachments (along with viruses) if you only view or click on the e-mail. Be careful.
