Reports of a malicious spam email purportedly coming from update@microsoft.com with "MS07-0065 - Critical Update" in the subject line have surfaced today. According to <a href=http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=40648>The Inquirer</a>, it's a nasty trojan that should be avoided. You have been warned.
