There is a new viral email posing as news of Osama Bin Laden being captured (got it this AM), with an attachment that is viral. Attachment name is pics.zip(DONOT OPEN THIS ATTACHMENT!!!). Osama has NOT been captured as far as I can discover here in US, no major news service is carrying news of his capture, and it would be all over US news were it true.

Virus software on my Linux box confirmed viral nature of this attachment.

    Thanks for the warning. Is it okay if I put this on spywareshooter.com? By the sounds of the attachment it sounds like the Sober virus that I've been getting a lot of lately.
